Abstract

Controlled drug-delivery systems (DDSs) are an ideal method for human health care in which the drug is released with a constant rate and its concentration in the blood always remains steady. Pure and modified SBA-15, with a hexagonal structure and nanosize pores with an apiary-like structure, have attracted much attention as carriers in academic research for the delivery of natural and chemical drugs. In this review, preparation, characterization and application of various types of SBA-15 as drug delivery agents are investigated.
