| Popis: | Therapeutically effective and biocompatible nanomaterials based on polymer and lipid carriers continuously lead researchers to design novel tools and strategies. Because of their potential ability to improve current therapies, these nanodevices are extensively used as delivery devices for drugs and/or imaging agents to improve the efficacy and safety of treatments by increasing therapeutic performance and reducing side effects of several drugs, proteins, and vaccines. Among all the approaches proposed in recent years, this chapter presents the most outstanding contributions of self-assembled nanomaterials, because they have been identified as one of the key subjects in nanoscience. We will focus on preparation and characterization methods and on the main biomedical applications reported in recent years. |
