About this document
Polymer Types in Drug Delivery Systems by Yuzak Guntoro is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document provides information about novel drug delivery systems using polymers. It begins with an introduction to polymers, their characteristics and applications. It then classifies polymers based on their source (natural, synthetic, semi-synthetic), biodegradability, structure (linear, branched, cross-linked), molecular forces (thermoplastics, thermosets, elastomers, fibers) and type of monomer involved (homo-polymer, co-polymer). Examples of natural polymers like cellulose, starch, hyaluronic acid,
