Our latest work published in “Journal of Controlled Release”
July 30, 2019The harsh environment of the gastrointestinal tract along with the complex structure of macromolecules restrains the administration of biological drugs to the parenteral route. Hence, drug delivery technologies play a crucial role to enable their oral administration. In this paper, we review the current scenario and identify key strategies for the future advancement in the field.
