ABSTRACT
The development of novel particulate systems
with defined shapes and sizes is of prominent interest in certain therapeutic applications such as drug delivery, gene transfection, diagnostic and imaging. On controlling and designing optimized architectural design of dendrimers; their shape, size, branching pattern length/density, and their surface functionality, clearly discriminate these structures as inimitable and optimal hauler in those applications. Moderately modified dendrimers have been shown to act as nano-drugs
adjacent to tumors, viruses and bacteria. Recent triumph in simplifying and optimizing the production of dendrimers make available a large variety of structures while simultaneously reducing the cost of their
production. The reflections on biomedical applications of dendrimers given in this review clearly make obvious the impending of this new fourth major class of polymer structural design and undeniably prove the high expectation for the future of dendrimers.
Keywords: Novel particulate systems, Dendrimers, gene transfection.
