Intended for future seminars
- On April 14, 2026 at 13:00 the general seminar of IIAP will be held (the seminar's room, IV floor).
On the agenda there is the report of Armen Poghosyan and Arin Sharoyan on "Drug delivery systems".
Description The report presents a comprehensive computational investigation of drug delivery systems (DDS), focusing on the fluoroquinolone antibiotic levofloxacin. The work addresses critical challenges in modern therapeutics—poor drug solubility, non-specific distribution, short circulation time, and rising antibiotic resistance—by evaluating surfactant-based nanocarriers.
The development of effective drug delivery systems (DDS) has become a pressing priority in modern pharmaceutical science. Despite significant advances in drug discovery, many promising therapeutic agents—including antibiotics—suffer from poor aqueous solubility, short plasma half-life, non-specific biodistribution, and dose-limiting toxicity. These limitations not only reduce treatment efficacy but also contribute to poor patient adherence and the emergence of drug resistance, particularly in the case of antimicrobial therapies. Against this backdrop, nanocarrier-based DDS offer a transformative solution by enabling targeted delivery, sustained release, and improved bioavailability.).
