Abstract

This review offers a comprehensive analysis of biodegradable nanoparticles, emphasizing their biocompatibility, adaptability, and customizable characteristics, which render them ideal for drug delivery applications. It discusses various preparation techniques for biodegradable nanoparticles, through the polymerization of monomers and dispersion of preformed polymers, including solvent evaporation, solvent diffusion, nanoprecipitation, and electros praying methods, highlighting their utility in targeted drug delivery applications. The review also examines therapeutic nanoparticles and different classes of therapeutic nanoparticles, including polymer-based nanoparticles, non-polymeric nanoparticles and lipid-based nanoparticles, detailing their unique properties and significant role in optimizing drug delivery systems. It further explores strategies for drug incorporation into nanoparticles—encompassing encapsulation, surface adsorption, and chemical conjugation techniques—and investigates their release mechanisms and applications in targeted drug delivery.
