Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
Fundamentals and Design of Drug Delivery Systems: A Textbook with Lab Activities is an essential resource for pharmaceutical sciences and engineering students. Covering all key concepts related to drug delivery courses, it introduces basic pharmacology, barriers to drug delivery, drug targeting, and novel drug delivery systems. Design considerations and approaches are thoroughly illustrated. The textbook reflects nanotechnology in various chapters and includes practical lab activities, providing a comprehensive understanding of drug delivery systems, experimental design, and data analysis. It is ideally suited for upper-undergraduate and graduate courses.
In addition to the foundational material, the textbook delves into cutting-edge topics such as biomimetic drug delivery systems, targeted delivery systems, stimuli-responsive systems, and micro/nano-robots-based drug delivery systems. Emerging fields like cell therapy, artificial intelligence (AI) in drug delivery, and 3D printing-based systems are also explored. Professionals in the Pharma industry will benefit from the innovative concepts and platforms presented, making it a valuable addition to their resources.
- Covers contents from the basics of pharmacology and drug delivery to drug delivery systems design
- Includes content on drug delivery system design
- Provides easy-to-adopt lab activities and end-of-chapter questions
