Over the past decade the world has seen the rise of the fascinating
and diverse field currently recognized as nanotechnology. This book
covers a broad spectrum of topics within nanotechnology, including
synthesis techniques, various innovative characterization
techniques, growth mechanisms of nanomaterials, the physics and
chemistry of nanomaterials, diverse functionalization methods, and
the various applications of nanomaterials in biology, therapeutics,
energy, food science, and environmental science. It also discusses
applications of nanostructured materials, integrative applications
such as nano- and micro-electronic sensor devices, as well as
agricultural and environmental remediation applications. The book
also includes a discussion of advances in functionalized
nanomaterials (0D, 1D, 2D and 3D) and covers the early stages of
the development of functionalized nanostructures, considering the
future for 2D nanomaterials and 3D objects. Additionally, it
includes a chapter on nanomaterial research development that
highlights work on the life-cycle analysis of nanostructured
materials and toxicity aspects. This book proves useful for
researchers and professionals working in the field of nanomaterials
and green technology, as well as in the field of nanotechnology. It
should be useful to students and specialized researchers in a
number of disciplines ranging from biology, chemistry, and
materials science to engineering and manufacturing in both academia
and industry.
Handbook of Nano-biomaterials for Therapeutics and Diagnostic
Applications covers in-depth topics on nano-biomaterials and nano
drug delivery systems (biosensors and bioimaging) involving polymer
nanocomposites, metal nanocomposites, and other carbon family
fibers and proteins. The book covers the current application of
tiny machines or nanodevices and their use as early detection
systems for life threatening diseases, giving detailed literature
on the development of nanodevices, their use as diagnostic tools,
and their present trend in the industry and market. In addition,
their synthesis, potential applications and future of smart
nanodevices in diagnosis of diseases and their use as smart
clinical devices is covered. Users will find sections on recent
advances in interdisciplinary research on the processing,
morphology, structure and properties of nanostructured materials
and their applications in drug delivery for various diseases such
as cancer, tuberculosis, Alzheimer disease, ophthalmic diseases,
and more.
