TL;DR: P pH-responsive nanocarriers have been developed to target drugs either to the slightly acidic extracellular fluids of tumor tissue or, after endocytosis, to the endosomes or lysosomes within cancer cells, facilitating the specific delivery of the drug while reducing systemic side-effects.

TL;DR: In this article, a new processing method for the production of modified starch, high power ultrasonic treatment (400 W), was applied to native tapioca starch, and the effect of processing parameters such as ultrasound amplitude (50 and 100%) and sonication time (10, 20 and 30 minutes) on the properties of the modified starches was investigated.

TL;DR: Doxorubicin is used clinically against various neoplasias, but suffers from serious side effects, and for the past three decades, this shortcoming has spurred research towards finding better drug delivery systems (DDSs) for this frontline drug.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of physical aging on the physicochemical properties of pregelatinized tapioca starch was investigated and the results showed that the aged starch exhibited an increase in dextrose equivalent (DE), turbidity and solubility.

TL;DR: It was shown that the coating process had a significant effect on drug release and the undesired burst release of ibuprofen was observed in all film-coated microparticulate formulations, resulting from the imperfection of coating films.
