Nanostructured lipid carriers for site-specific drug delivery

Nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC), comprises of a blend of solid and liquid lipids which results in a partially crystallized lipid system and imparts many advantages over solid lipid nanoparticles such as enhanced drug loading capacity, drug release modulation flexibility and improved stability. NLC have found numerous applications in both pharmaceutical and cosmetic industry due to ease of preparation, the feasibility of scale-up,...
