Abstrakt: Conventional drug delivery systems (DDS) today still face several drawbacks and obstacles. High total doses of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) are often difficult or impossible to deliver due to poor solubility of the API or undesired clearance from the body caused by strong interactions with plasma proteins. In addition, high doses lead to a high overall body burden, in particular if they cannot be delivered specifically to the target site. Therefore, modern DDS must not only be able to deliver a dose into the body, but should also overcome the hurdles mentioned above as examples. One of these promising devices are polymeric nanoparticles, which can encapsulate a wide range of APIs despite having different physicochemical properties. Most importantly, polymeric nanoparticles are tunable to obtain tailored systems for each application. This can already be achieved via the starting material, the polymer, by incorporating, e.g., functional groups. This enables the particle properties to be influenced not only specifically in terms of their interactions with APIs, but also in terms of their general properties such as size, degradability, and surface properties. In particular, the combination of size, shape, and surface modification allows polymeric nanoparticles to be used not only as a simple drug delivery device, but also to achieve targeting. This chapter discusses to what extent polymers can be designed to form defined nanoparticles and how their properties affect their performance.
