Self-assembling Nano-fiber Gel Delivers High Concentrations of Clinically Approved Drugs

Tuesday, October 21, 2008 - 12:35 in Health & Medicine

Scientists have developed a new self-assembling hydrogel drug delivery system that is biocompatible, efficient at drug release, and easy to tailor. Importantly, these structures can deliver clinically approved drugs in high concentrations without requiring carriers for the drug or generating toxic components, a problem with hydrogel systems until now.
