Summary

This book combines emulsion knowledge into a single, comprehensive volume, ideal for professionals and students involved in the areas of pharmaceutical science who are looking to learn about this emergent research concept.

• Compiles the step-by-step investigations made concerning the potential of nanosized emulsions on both drug delivery and drug targeting areas by different group of scientists in various laboratories across the world
• Inverts the common nano-emulsions coverage trend of focusing on focused on the particulate system itself, instead exploring the way to turn nanosized emulsions as biomedical tool, as well as, treating the in vitro and in vivo aspects after administration
• Provides an overview of the current state-of-the art regarding the development of tocol emulsions, emulsion adjuvants in immunization research, oxygen-carrying emulsions (called as fluorocarbon emulsion) and emulsions for delivering drugs to nasal and topical (ocular and transdermal) routes

Author Biography

Tamilvanan Shunmugaperumal, PhD, works at the National Institute of Pharmaceutical Education and Research (NIPER), Guwahati, India. His current research focuses on systematic optimization of formula to prepare various pharmaceutical dosage forms such as solid lipid microparticles, nanosized emulsions, and microspheres, where he seeks to exploit the potential of lipid- and polymer-based drug delivery carriers to eradicate infectious biofilm formation associated with both medical devices and human organs.
