Assessment of Polysaccharides for Development of Pharmaceutical Drug Delivery Systems| Chapter 5 | New Innovations in Chemistry and Biochemistry Vol.7

 The purpose of this paper was to go through the physicochemical properties of a few polymers in order to see how they could be used in the development of traditional and modern pharmaceutical drug delivery systems. According to reports, polymers have become an essential material in the production of dosage forms for our pharmaceutical industry in the previous few decades. The majority of these polymers were used as a matrix or covering for both traditional and new dosage forms. These polymers were either hydrophilic or hydrophobic in nature, and when they came into contact with dissolving fluids or gastrointestinal fluids, they swelled and formed a viscous gel-like material. The physicochemical features of such polymers have been effectively utilised in the creation of novel controlled release, site specific drug delivery systems, extended drug release systems, and other modified released formulations for successfully targeting various drug candidates. Those drug(s) were administered at the target site of action in order to elicit pharmacological responses in the human body. In addition, an attempt was made in this article to describe the significance of the physicochemical features of certain polymers in terms of describing their potential detailed applications.
