The Synthesis of Dendrimer and Their Application for Drug Delivery and as Haemoglobin Model for Artificial Blood

Dendrimers are a class of highly branched, tree-like macromolecules that have garnered significant interest due to their unique structure and potential applications in various scientific fields. This section overviews dendrimers, their synthesis, properties, and applications. Dendrimers are characterized by a central core, from which dendritic branches radiate outwards in successive layers or generations, leading to a spherical structure. The terminal functionalities on the surface of dendrimers play a crucial role in defining their properties, such as solubility, shape, and viscosity.
