Preparation and characterisation of polymer microparticles with varying morphologies with application in drug delivery

Polymer-based particles of varied porosity, roughness and morphology have been prepared by many different methods towards biomedical applications. One of their most important applications is as degradable and targeted drug delivery systems, with reduced toxicity and side effects compared to their so...
