Summary

Introduction

Nanoparticles are polymeric colloidal systems ranging from 10 to 1000 nm, which are able to deliver compounds to the cells Their size, shape and surface determine the activity of the molecules incorporated. Nanoparticles are polymeric colloidal systems ranging from 10 to 1000 nm, which are able to deliver compounds to the cells[1]. They can be used alone or associated to several molecules for the treatment and diagnosis of cancer, autoimmune and congenital diseases. Particles ranging from 10 to 200 nm have shown better efficacy in the majority of the drug distribution systems[6]
