Drug delivery is an important topic that has attracted the attention of researchers in
recent years. Albumin nanoparticles play a significant role in drug delivery as a carrier due to their
unique characteristics. Albumin is non-toxic, biocompatible, and biodegradable. Its structure is
such that it can interact with different drugs, which makes the treatment of the disease faster and
also reduces the side effects of the drug. Albumin nanoparticles can be used in the diagnosis and
treatment of many diseases, including cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer's, etc. These nanoparticles can
connect to some compounds, such as metal nanoparticles, antibodies, folate, etc. and create a powerful nanostructure for drug delivery. In this paper, we aim to investigate albumin nanoparticles in
carrier format for drug delivery application. In the beginning, different types of albumin and their
preparation methods were discussed, and then albumin nanoparticles were discussed in detail in
diagnosing and treating various diseases.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
