Reviews
Alginates are naturally occurring biopolysaccharides, which afford their application in biomedical and pharmaceutical preparations. This book presents a comprehensive review of the use of alginates in the fabrication of various drug delivery systems. In 2019, the editors of this book published another book titled Alginates: Versatile Polymers in Biomedical Applications and Therapeutics (CRC Press). There are overlaps of some topics between the two books. This book, however, focuses primarily on the application of alginates in pharmaceutical preparations. Thus, it is expected to be well utilized by its target audience --Doody
