Stimuli-Responsive Polymers for Drug Release in Targeted Therapy
Abstract: SRPs, or stimuli-responsive polymers, are becoming a good way to give specific drugs. They let medicines be released in a controlled way. Some of the things that can change these polymers are pH, temperature, light, magnetic fields, and the number of ions present. Some outside signs can make SRPs respond, which helps control how drugs are released. This cuts down on side effects and improves the effectiveness of focused treatments. …
