The solid porous particles have a nanocavity structure in which drugs are encapsulated known as nanosponges. There are five types of nanosponges. Nanosponges size varies from 1um and less than 1 um. Nanosponges are stable at high temperatures. It has high drug loading capacity. Nanosponges formulation overcomes stability, delayed-release activity, and solubility-related problems. Nanosponges can deliver the drug through oral, parenteral, and topical routes. The current review focuses on nanosponges in drug delivery systems including their synthesis, characterization, and diverse applications.

Abstract


The solid porous particles have a nanocavity structure in which drugs are encapsulated known as nanosponges. There are five types of nanosponges. Nanosponges size varies from 1um and less than 1 um. Nanosponges are stable at high temperatures. It has high drug loading capacity. Nanosponges formulation overcomes stability, delayed-release activity, and solubility-related problems. Nanosponges can deliver the drug through oral, parenteral, and topical routes. The current review focuses on nanosponges in drug delivery systems including their synthesis, characterization, and diverse applications.
