Bioengineered Nanomaterials for Wound Healing and Infection Control
is a key reference for those working in the fields of materials
science, pharmacy, nanotechnology, biomedical engineering and
microbiology. Bioengineered nanomaterials have unique
physicochemical properties which promote accelerated wound healing
and treatment of infections. The biosynthesis of these
nanomaterials also offers a clean, safe and renewable alternative
to traditional nanomaterials, helping reduce environmental impact
alongside antibacterial resistance.
Functionalized Nanomaterials for Cancer Research: Applications in
Treatments, Tools and Devices presents an in-depth and step by step
description of knowledge on functionalized nanomaterials for cancer
research, including treatment and future developments as well as
their impact on patients’ overall outcomes. The book
discusses the functionalized nanoplatforms for cancer detection and
imaging, interactions between nanomaterials and cancer cells, and
drug resistant malignancies. The chapters are organized in a manner
that can be readily adopted as sources for new and further studies
by highlighting the main in vitro and in vivo nano-therapeutic
achievements on cancer. Additionally, current trends on
functionalized nanomaterials for cancer research and commercial
scale opportunities are discussed. It is a valuable resource for
researchers, oncologists, students, and members of the biomedical
and medical fields who want to learn more about the potential of
nanotechnology in cancer research and treatment.
The field of nanotechnology for targeted therapy initiated more
than decade ago has grown fast and interest is increasing. Given
the importance of the field for targeted drug and gene delivery
systems, there are a large number of laboratory investigations
today researching nanobiomaterials for diagnostic and therapeutic
applications. Because of the ability of scientists to load
nanoparticles with any agent, interest continues to grow and
technology in this arena is rapidly evolving. These emerging
nanobiomaterials-based medicines can overcome the disadvantages of
traditional medicines by target-oriented and site-specific delivery
of precise medicines (immunotherapeutic agents, chemotherapeutic
agents, diagnostic agents, and so on). Pharmaceutical
Nanobiotechnology for Targeted Therapy presents an updated overview
of recent advancements in the field of pharmaceutical
nanobiotechnology and nano-based drug and gene delivery systems.
This comprehensive knowledge will allow researchers to discover
innovative nanobiomaterials for targeted therapeutics. The chapters
deal with various emerging nanobiomaterials for targeted
therapeutic delivery systems and the writing is in a style that is
easily disseminated and in a manner that can be readily adopted as
sources for new and further studies. This book should be useful for
researchers and professionals from academia and industry working in
the field of nanotechnology, nanobiotechnology, as well as in the
field of pharmaceutical nanotechnology. It should also be useful to
those interested in a range of disciplines from material science,
chemistry, molecular biology, polymer chemistry, and many more
interdisciplinary areas.
Emerging Nanomaterials and Nano-based Drug Delivery Approaches to
Combat Antimicrobial Resistance focuses on recent and emerging
trends surrounding nanomaterials and nano-drug delivery approaches
to combat antimicrobial resistance. The relationship between
nanomaterials and antimicrobial activity needs to be deeply
explored to meet the challenges of combating antimicrobial
resistance. The content of this book is divided into three main
topic areas, including (i) how to overcome the existing traditional
approaches to combat antimicrobial resistance, (ii) applying
multiple drug delivery mechanisms to target multi-drug resistant
microbes, and (iii) how nanomaterials can be used as drug carriers.
This is an important reference source for those looking to
understand how nanotechnology plays an important role in combatting
disease and infection. As antimicrobial resistance threatens the
effective prevention and treatment of an ever-increasing range of
infections caused by bacteria, parasites, viruses, and fungi, this
is a timely resource.
