NANOSPONGES: A NOVEL TECHNIQUE USED FOR TARGETED DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEM–AN OVERVIEW
Authors: Ragupathi R* And Jayanthi B

ABSTRACT
The emergence of nanotechnology has led to many drug formulations being invented. For a long time, successful targeted drug delivery systems have been a dream, because of many major disadvantages, a realistic approach for the formation of discrete functionalized particles, called 'nanosponge', has been developed. A novel colloidal carrier, the invention of Nanosponges, has the ability to solve these problems. Nanosponge is a modern and emerging technology that can reliably control the release rates of managed drug delivery for topical use. The development of nanosponges has been a crucial step in solving these challenges. Small, virus-sized sponges that can be filled with a wide variety of drugs are nanosponges. These small sponges can circulate across the body until they enter and bind to the surface of the specific target site and continue to release the drug in a controlled and predictable manner. Nanosponge technology has been explored for various uses, such as enhancing the bioavailability of drug molecules and the delivery of drugs to the topical, oral and parenteral routes. Keywords: Nanosponges, targeted delivery cyclodextrin, solubility, preparation
