Nanoparticles are considered to be the building blocks for
nanotechnology and are referred to as the particles having more
than one dimension of the order of 100 nm or less.The
nanostructured materials are being offered as better built, long
lasting, cleaner, safer, and smarter products for use in
communications, medicine, transportation, agriculture and other
industries. Topics in molecular recognition,
biomolecule-nanocrystal conjugates as fluorescence label for
biological cells, and DNA-mediated groupings of nanocrystals are
widespread, intriguing researchers from both biological and
engineering fields. The diversity of nanotechnology covers fields
from biology to material science, physics to chemistry, and other
fields with variety of specialties. Controlled size, shape,
composition, crystallinity, and structure-dependent properties of
nanoparticles govern the unique properties of nanotechnology. The
controlled biosynthesis of nanoparticles is of high scientific and
technological interest as the microorganisms grab target ions from
their environment and then turn the metal ions into the element
metal through enzymatic mechanism generated through their cellular
("Intra"/ "Extra") activities.
The project aims to introduce the basics and advancements made
so far in the field of biosynthesis of nanoparticles for graduate
students and researchers around the world. The main aims are to (a)
introduce the reader to the variety of microorganisms and their
ability to synthesize the nanoparticles, (b) provide an overview of
the methodologies applied to biosynthesize the variety of
nanoparticles of medical and commercial uses, (c) provide a
literature review on diversity of microorganisms able to synthesize
nanoparticles of different types, (d) to discuss the regulatory
mechanisms in microorganism able to synthesize variety of
nanoparticles, (e) discuss experimental design problems associated
with the controlled biosynthesis of nanoparticles, (f) discuss the
stability and toxicity of nanoparticles in varying environment
towards their therapeutic implications. The regulations, challenges
and implications of biosynthesized nanoparticles for commercial
significance will also represent among the main sections of the
book. These aims will be organized by invited research/ review
articles from renowned researchers exploring biosynthesis of
variety of nanoparticles, and differ in length and number of
chapters, with the literature review section containing the bulk of
the text.
