Fiber and Textile Engineering in Drug Delivery Systems Summary

Fiber and Textile Engineering in Drug Delivery Systems by Navneet Sharma (Scientist, Institute of Information Technology (IIT), Delhi, India)

Fiber and Textile Engineering in Drug Delivery Systems explains how innovative textile processing methods including rotary spinning, microfluidics, wet spinning and electrospinning can be used to produce novel drug delivery solutions. This topical book provides detailed descriptions of how to produce such new materials for this purpose, with foundational content to help readers from a range of backgrounds understand the context of material selection and design decisions. Emphasis is given to the engineering side of the manufacturing of the textile and its role in drug delivery, but this also acts as a guide to pharmaceutical applications of textile fibers for materials scientists. Drug delivery research is rapidly expanding and experimenting with new materials to drive improved clinical outcomes as the efficacy of the therapeutic molecule is highly dependent on the right choice of carrier system. Recently, fiber based carriers at both nano and micro scales are gaining interest in the scientific community due to ease of manufacturing, high surface area to volume ratio, desirable drug release kinetics and high mechanical strength.

About Navneet Sharma (Scientist, Institute of Information Technology (IIT), Delhi, India)

Navneet Sharma (M.Pharm, PhD, PGDRA). His work was inclined more towards applied R&D, especially needs-based product development. As an expert in the biomaterials, he had developed dermal decontamination formulation for the radiological decontamination of the skin. He had devised and applied pharmacoscintigraphic procedures for its preclinical evaluation of the drug delivery systems in various experimental models of disease. Further, he had developed the dermal formulations for the broad spectrum decontamination and healing of radiation-induced wounds. For the past five years, his work has been exclusively focused on the Medical Management of Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Emergencies. Currently, He is working in the field of material sciences as a scientist at IIT Delhi. In his new research carrier of 5 years, he had acclaimed eight national and international awards. The most prominent among them are the SCO and Ministry of External Affairs, Government of India Covid-19 best innovation award 2020, and Department of Science and Technology, Young Scientist Award for the year 2018 and 2022. Currently, he is an investigator in the three projects from DST-India, filled and granted ten patents, four technologies successfully transferred to the industry. He had 45 publications, including five book chapters, authored and edited four books. B. S. Butola is a Professor at the Department of Textiles & Fibre Engineering, IIT Delhi. His research interests include functionalization of textiles with metal oxides, use of shear thickening fluids for improving the impact performance of ballistic textiles, polymeric nanocomposites and smart colorants.
