A Review on Bionanogels

Abstract

The use of nanogels as nanoscopic drug carriers has garnered significant interest, especially for the delivery of bioactive mediators at specific sites or under time constraints. Many different types of nanogel preparations have been made possible by a broad range of polymer systems and the straightforward alteration of their physico-chemical characteristics. Nanogels have exceptional stability, drug loading capacity, biologic consistency, good penetration ability, and environmental stimulus responsiveness. Nanogels have demonstrated great promise in a number of areas, such as gene transfer, chemotherapy medication delivery, diagnostics, organ targeting, and more. This review primarily focuses on various forms of nanogels, production techniques, such as drug loading techniques, various biodegradation mechanisms, and primary mechanisms of drug release from nanogels. Additionally, a quick discussion and examples of recent uses for nanogels are provided.
