#drug delivery
- Aerosolization — The act of aerosolizing and its result; a physical, mechanical, or experimental process through which a liquid or solid substance is transformed into microscopic particles suspended in air or a gaseous medium. In medicine, it represents the fundamental operating technique of nebulizers to allow efficient drug delivery directly into the pulmonary alveoli.
- Anaphoresis — A structural physicochemical phenomenon represented by the movement of negatively charged colloidal particles or ions (anions) within a solution or suspension toward the positive electrode (anode) under the influence of an external electric field. In medicine and dermatology, this form of electrophoresis is utilized therapeutically for the transcutaneous introduction of negatively charged drugs or ions directly into tissues, facilitating precise localized treatments.
