Nanocapsule - Wikipedia
A nanocapsule is a nanoscale shell made from a nontoxic polymer. They are vesicular systems made of a polymeric membrane which encapsulates an inner liquid core at the nanoscale. Nanocapsules have many uses, including promising medical applications for drug delivery, food enhancement, nutraceuticals, and for self-healing materials.
Nanocapsule - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Nanocapsules are a kind of nanoparticle that consists of a core and a protective shell that contains bioactive substances (Fig. 6C). They offer many benefits, including extended drug release, increased bioavailability of therapeutic molecules, …
Nanocapsule technology: a review - PubMed
Nanocapsules are submicroscopic colloidal drug carrier systems composed of an oily or an aqueous core surrounded by a thin polymer membrane. Two technologies can be used to obtain such nanocapsules: the interfacial polymerization of a monomer or the interfacial nanodeposition of a preformed polymer.
Nanocapsules: The Weapons for Novel Drug Delivery Systems
Nanocapsules, as characteristic class of nanoparticles, are made up of one or more active materials (core) and a protective matrix (shell) (Benita 1998) in which the therapeutic substance may be confined. The nanocapsules have attracted great interest because of their protective coating, which is usually pyrophoric and easily oxidized.
Nanoscale Drug Delivery Systems: From Medicine to Agriculture
Nano-capsules are nano-vesicular systems in which drugs are enclosed in an inner cavity created by a unique polymeric membrane (see Figure 3). Nano-encapsulation enhances drug delivery and efficacy, but the different methods used for the preparation of nano-capsules frequently produce dispersions with low drug loading.
