Application


  • Development of new lipid-based paclitaxel nanoparticles using sequential simplex optimization.: This article presents the development of lipid-based nanoparticles for drug delivery, utilizing glyceryl tridodecanoate as a component. The optimized nanoparticles show potential for improved delivery and efficacy of paclitaxel, a chemotherapeutic agent (Dong et al., 2009).
