Modeling of Nano-carriers for Vascular-targeted Delivery for Blood Clots Treatment

Abstract

Nanoparticles have become one of the emerging and promising technologies that revolutionized the medical fields future on which has received much attention from the scientific community and researchers. Nanotechnology-based targeted drug delivery has a high capacity for loading large amounts of anticoagulants drug to dissolve clots in a safe manner without affecting healthy blood vessels. This paper seeks to provide a better understanding of both the anticoagulant drug release process and the coagulation eliminating process by simulating each process using chemical reaction engineering, moving mesh, and convection-diffusion equation modules. This study adds to a growing corpus of research showing that nanotechnology empowers in treating blood clots within 2-4 hours. In addition, these results cast a new light on a better understanding of the anticoagulation drug diffusion from both spheres and multiply-twinned nanoparticles besides the reduction of clots growth and how it dissolved over time.
