Role of Lipid Excipients in Modifying Oral and Parenteral Drug Delivery assembles a group of experienced investigators and educators from the front line of pharmaceutical sciences to provide a comprehensive resource on the fundamentals, formulation, and biopharmaceutical issues of lipid-based drug delivery.

Features:

• Interaction of drug transporters with excipients
• Formulation issues around lipid-based oral and parenteral delivery systems
• Biological implications of lipid-based parenteral drug delivery systems
• Principles in the development of intravenous lipid emulsions
• Protein adsorption patterns on parenteral lipid formulations—a key factor determining the in vivo fate
• Nanoparticle targeting for drug delivery across the blood-brain barrier
• Lipid-coated perfluorocarbon nanostructures as parenteral therapeutic agents
