Biomaterials Serving the Purpose of Drug Delivery in Human Body

Today is an era when we overcome all constrains concerning our health. Drug is a substance that when inhaled, injected, smoked, consumed, absorbed via a patch on the skin or dissolve under the tongue causes a temporary physiological change in the body. Total number of approved drugs is 3254. Delivering drugs on the body should be efficient enough. Different types of drug carriers are used for delivering these drugs into body. These carriers are more specialized in biocompatibility apart from other materials. Sometimes the carriers have good effective area coverage but it takes much time to affect and vice-versa. As a consequence several prolific researchers have been asked to contribute unique research findings and reviews that could stimulate continuing effort to look for or to understand new biomaterials with biocompatibility, desired residence time, larger area coverage. This text focuses on the recent and far attempts in drug delivery biomaterials that would allow people to have a clear view of materials role in health site. The discussion comprises of metal-organic frameworks, carbon materials, microporous mesoporous materials and Mechanoresponsive materials for drug delivery system.
