Abstract:
Thermosensitive gel with the property of LCST (Lower Critical Solution Temperature) was studied as a hot spot these years for it can be used as one supportor of drug controlled release system which can release drug at right point, right time and right quantity. With further reseaches and applications of thermosensitive gel, the modes and mechanisms of it were discovered and poited out, drug release models were also established step by step. Resesrches on drug release mechanisms and modes of thermosensitive gel will make it applied better in fields of medicine and biology.
