Pulmonary inhalation performance of chitosan nanoparticles admixed with lactose-poly ethylene glycol microparticles / Nasser Ahmed Mohammed Al Hajj

Nanoparticles are characterized by poor pulmonary inhalation performance as they are exhalation prone, in addition to their tendency to form agglomeration due to large surface area to volume ratio thereby hindering their deep lung deposition. Coarse carriers commonly used in dry powder inhaler canno...
