Abstract
The bone infections are the most divesting complications confronted by the physicians and patients. The antibiotic loaded bone cements, such as synthetic ceramics and natural ceramics were accepted for bone infections. The currently available bone cements were not accepted due to the lack of mechanical strength, porosity and quick degradation rate etc. The major aim of this review is to discuss about several different synthetic methods used to prepare the bioactive diopside (CaMgSi2O6) and its applications in ceramic drug delivery systems for controlled and targeted delivery. It has been reported from various research articles, diopside was mainly used for bone tissue regeneration, dentistry, orthopedics and enzyme delivery matrices with different formulations. Compared to other bioceramics diopside is preferable due to its biocompatibility and high mechanical strength.

Advances of natural products, bio-actives and novel drug delivery system against emerging viral infections
Due to the increasing prevalence of viral infections and the ability of these human pathogens to develop resistance to current treatment strategies, there is a great need to find and develop new compounds to combat them. These molecules must have low toxicity, specific activity and high bioavailability. The most suitable ...read more
Electrospun Fibers as Drug Delivery Systems
In recent years, electrospun fibers have attracted considerable attention as potential platforms for drug delivery due to their distinctive properties and adaptability. These fibers feature a notable surface area-to-volume ratio and can be intentionally designed with high porosity, facilitating an increased capacity for drug loading and rendering them suitable for ...read more
Emerging Nanotherapeutics for Mitigation of Neurodegenerative Disorders
Conditions affecting the central nervous system (CNS) present a significant hurdle due to limited access of both treatments and diagnostic tools for the brain. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) acts as a barrier, restricting the passage of molecules from the bloodstream into the brain. The most formidable challenge facing scientists is ...read more
Nanotechnology Based Chemotherapy for the treatment of Head & Neck Cancer
The escalating recurrence rates observed in Head and Neck cancer, particularly within the chemo-therapeutically treated cohort (50-60%), can be attributed to the non-selective nature of current anticancer drug delivery modalities. In this context, nanotechnology-based drug delivery systems emerge as a promising avenue for achieving precise localization of therapeutic agents to ...read more
