Polyketal Nanoparticles (PKNs): a Novel Macrophage-Selective Drug-Delivery System
ApplicationsPolykeltal nanoparticles (PKNs) represent a novel and effective drug delivery vehicle, which appear to target macrophages selectively. Currently, PKNs can be used to incorporate any lipophilic pharmaceutical or lipophilic peptide. Inventors are now working on adapting the reverse-phase emulsion technique which will allow for the incorporation...
