Comprehensive Overview of Carbohydrate Polymers
Abstract: Targeting drug delivery specifically to the colon has become increasingly crucial for treating various colonic diseases like colorectal cancer, amebiasis, ulcerative colitis, and Crohn’s disease. Numerous strategies have been developed for this purpose, including using enzymatically degradable polymers, employing prodrug-based approaches, coating drugs with polymers sensitive to time or pH changes, utilizing osmotically and pressure-controlled delivery systems. Polysaccharides activated by the colon's physiological environment show significant potential as they offer …
