Editorial Reviews

Presents the scientific and pharmaceutical aspects of protein delivery from controlled-release microparticulate systems, emphasizing protein stability during encapsulation and release. Discusses microencapsulation techniques including new methods that involve no organic solvents, protein structures that are at risk during microencapsulation and release from microspheres, experimental approaches to protein stabilization, nanoparticles and liposomes for targeted and topical delivery, vaccine delivery and cancer immunotherapy, several pharmaceutical applications, and other topics.
