"Nanoencapsulation system for delivery of protein and peptide-A review"

Abstract

Various nanopaticulate systems are used for the nanoenapsulation of proteins and peptides for improving peptide drug accumulation inside the target site. Due to less stability of proteins; they get readily degraded there fore encapsulation of protein drugs provide sustained release and protect the non-released protein from degradation. Various natural as well as synthetic nanocarriers are used for encapsulation of proteins and peptides. Also there are different methods used for preparation of nanoencapsulant’s but the choice of method for peptide encapsulation is entirely based on the physicochemical activity of protein and its application.

KEYWORDS: Nanoencapsuation, Nanocarriers, proteins and peptides.
