What are nanoparticles?
Nanomaterials are defined as particles that have at least one dimension ≤100 nm in a three-dimensional space. Nanoparticles are comparable in size to biological entities such as proteins, and similar in size to viruses, DNA, and other cellular components. Nanoparticles have a high surface-area-to-volume ratio, which allows them to hold many substances on their surface.
Types of nanoparticles and their applications
Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs): They show extraordinary potential in mRNA vaccines and gene therapy, ushering in a new era of precision medicine.
Polymer nanoparticles: Suitable for the continuous release and targeted delivery of drugs to achieve the vision of precision medicine.
Solid lipid nanoparticles: Optimize drug release rate and improve preparation stability.
Metal nanoparticles: Application in imaging and diagnostic technology, opening a new era of diagnosis and treatment.
Inorganic nanoparticles: Widely involved in the field of treatment and diagnosis, expanding the boundary of medical applications.
Advantages of nano formulation
Nano formulations, which are carefully designed and developed nanoscale drug delivery systems ranging in size from 1 to 100 nanometers, offer significant advantages over traditional drug delivery methods:
Targeted delivery: Nanoparticles can be precisely targeted to specific cells or tissues, greatly reducing non-targeted effects and improving the safety and effectiveness of therapy.
Enhanced bioavailability: Nano formulations can significantly improve the solubility and stability of insoluble drugs, ensure the efficient absorption and utilization of drugs, and enhance the therapeutic effect. The nanoscale structure promotes the penetration of drugs across biofilms and improves their efficacy.
Controlled release: Nanoparticles are designed to deliver drugs on demand, ensuring consistent and stable therapeutic concentrations, reducing the frequency of dosing, and improving patient compliance.
Stability guarantee: Effectively protect the drug from the internal environment, avoid early degradation, prolong the drug activity cycle, and ensure lasting efficacy.
Multi-functional integration: Compatible with various therapeutic ingredients, such as small molecules, peptides, proteins and nucleic acids, becoming an all-round platform for drug development.
