Preparation and characterization of starch-poly-epsilon-caprolactone microparticles incorporating bioactive agents for drug delivery and tissue engineering applications
One limitation associated with the delivery of bioactive agents concerns the short half-life of these molecules when administered intravenously, which results in their loss from the desired site. Incorporation of bioactive agents into depot vehicles provides a means to increase their persistence at...
