Lyophilized Iron Oxide Nanoparticles Encapsulated in Amphotericin B: A Novel Targeted Nano Drug Delivery System for the Treatment of Systemic Fungal Infections

We formulated and tested a targeted nanodrug delivery system to help treat life-threatening invasive fungal infections, such as cryptococcal meningitis. Various designs of iron oxide nanoparticles (IONP) (34−40 nm) coated with bovine serum albumin and coated and targeted with amphotericin...
