Development of biodegradable polymers as drug carriers / 国际生物医学工程杂志

ABSTRACT

Biodegradable polymers as drug delivery systems have attracted investigators. They degrade in biological fluids to produce biocompatible and nontoxic products, which could be removed from the body by normal physiological pathways without extra surgical removal. In this article, literatures on biodegradable polymers mainly served as matrix in controlled release systems are analyzed and reviewed.
