  • Abstract
    The aim of this study was to develop nanoparticles for lung delivery. Nanoparticles were incorporated into carrier particles using spray drying and a new spray-freeze drying technology. The carrier particles were manufactured with the appropriate size for pulmonary delivery. The new technology has important implications for local drug targeting and drug delivery of nanoparticle based delivery systems to the lungs.
