    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:

    Synthetic biopolymers provide a readily available alternative to natural biopolymers found in nature, as well as being more easily modified for specific applications, such as drug delivery. Synthetic Biopolymers for Drug Delivery covers a wide range of synthetic biopolymer types and their unique properties, including PLA, PLGA, PCL, Carbopols, cyclodextrins, synthetic lipids and much more. Biocompatibility, toxicity, and regulatory considerations are also thoroughly discussed, ensuring the reader is fully equipped for efficient biomaterials selection and utilization in drug delivery applications.

    This book is a must-have reference for those working in the fields of Materials Science, Biomedical Engineering, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Pharmacology, Chemical Engineering, and Clinical Sciences.




    • Comprehensively covers all key synthetic biopolymers for drug delivery, chapter-by-chapter, providing a one-stop-shop for readers
    • Considers both traditional inorganics and novel nanobiomaterials, offering a balanced approach
    • Written by a global team of experts from a range of related fields, this book offers a diverse, interdisciplinary guide to synthetic biopolymers for drug delivery
