Drug delivery and nanoparticles: Applications and hazards (2008, background): “Although their small size (up to 10 nm) limits extensive drug incorporation into the dendrimers, their dendritic nature and branching allows for drug loading onto the outside surfaces of the polymeric structure (Svenson and Tomalia 2005).”
Dendrimers: synthesis, applications, and properties (2014, background): “Therefore, dendrimers have become an ideal delivery vehicle candidate for explicit study of the effects of polymer size, charge, and composition on biologically relevant properties such as lipid bilayer interactions, cytotoxicity, internalization, blood plasma retention time, biodistribution, and fi”
Nanoparticles as drug delivery systems (2012, background): “Some of the examples of nanometric molecules possessing dendritic structure include: glycogen, amylopectin, and proteoglycans [146].”
