NEXT-GENERATION DRUG DELIVERY: EXPLORING THE POTENTIAL OF BACTERIAL GHOSTS
Mohd. Shafeuddin Farooqui*
Abstract The emergence of bacterial ghosts (BGs) as drug carriers represents a promising advancement in the field of nanomedicine. Bacterial ghosts are hollow, non-viable bacterial cells that retain their structural integrity and possess unique properties, making them suitable for drug delivery applications. This review highlights the mechanisms of bacterial ghost formation, their physicochemical properties, drug loading and release mechanisms, potential therapeutic applications, advantages over conventional carriers, and the challenges faced in their development. The review concludes with future perspectives on the integration of bacterial ghosts into innovative drug delivery systems. Keywords: . [Full Text Article] [Download Certificate] |
