Alginates in Drug Delivery
Amit Kumar Nayak (Redaktør) ; Md Saquib Hasnain (Redaktør)
Alginates in Drug Delivery explores the vital precepts, basic and fundamental aspects of alginates in pharmaceutical sciences,
biopharmacology, and in the biotechnology industry. The use of natural polymers in healthcare applications over synthetic polymers is becoming more prevalent due to natural polymers' biocompatibility,
biodegradability, economic extraction and ready availability. Les mer

Alginates in Drug Delivery explores the vital precepts, basic and fundamental aspects of alginates in pharmaceutical sciences,
biopharmacology, and in the biotechnology industry. The use of natural polymers in healthcare applications over synthetic
polymers is becoming more prevalent due to natural polymers' biocompatibility, biodegradability, economic extraction and ready
availability. To fully utilize and harness the potential of alginates, this book presents a thorough understanding of the
synthesis, purification, and characterization of alginates and their derivative. This book collects, in a single volume, all
relevant information on alginates in health care, including recent advances in the field.
This is a highly useful resource for pharmaceutical scientists, health care professionals and regulatory scientists actively involved in the pharmaceutical product and process development of natural polymer containing drug delivery, as well as postgraduate students and postdoctoral research fellows in pharmaceutical sciences.

Dr Amit Kumar Nayak, M Pharm, PhD, is currently working as Associate Professor at Seemanta Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences,
Odisha, India. He earned his PhD from IFTM University, Moradabad, India. He has over 12 years of research experiences in the
field of pharmaceutics, especially in the development and characterization of novel biopolymeric and nanostructured drug delivery
systems. To date, he has authored more than 123 research and review publications in various high impact peer-reviewed journals
and 82 book chapters. He has also edited or authored 9 books. Dr Nayak has presented his research work at several conferences
and received the University Foundation Day Research Award in 2019, from the Biju Patnaik University of Technology, Odisha.
He is a life member of the Association of Pharmaceutical Teachers of India and is a registered pharmacist. Dr Md Saquib Hasnain,
PhD, has more than six years of research experience in the field of pharmaceutics, especially in systematic development and
characterization of diverse nanostructured drug delivery systems, controlled release drug delivery systems, bio-enhanced drug
delivery systems, nanomaterials, and nanocomposites, employing quality-by-design approaches, as well as development and characterization
of polymeric composites, and formulation characterization. To date, he has authored more than 30 publications in various high
impact peer-reviewed journals, 37 book chapters, and co-edited 10 books. He has one Indian patent application and serves as
a reviewer for several journals. Dr Hasnain has participated in, and presented his research work at, several conferences in
India and abroad. He is a member of the Royal Society of Chemistry, UK, the International Association of Environmental and
Analytical Chemistry, Switzerland, and the Swiss Chemical Society.
