Nanocomposite Particles for Bio-Applications: Materials and Bio-Interfaces
Pan Stanford Publishing Pte. Ltd, Aug 2011, Pages: 312
This book provides a concise state of the art of the synthesis and properties of nanocomposite particles with interest for diverse bio-applications. Contributions are mainly related to the chemical design of nanocomposite particles, their properties as well as their constituent materials, and the tailoring of bio-interfaces that may be relevant to the fields of clinical diagnosis and drug delivery procedures, among other bio-applications.
The topics described include particles composed of a polymer matrix containing dispersed inorganic nanophases and other bio-functionalized nanomaterials. The book also discusses the practical applications of these materials and the limitations associated with their use.
Key Features:
-One of the few books approaching the bio-applications of nanocomposite particles.
-Includes contributions from specialists with international published research in their fields of expertise.
-Illustrated with excellent figures and contains a very good survey of references to accompany each chapter.
Readership
Researchers, postgraduate, and advanced undergraduate students of chemistry, biochemistry, materials science, biotechnology, nanoscience, and nanotechnology.
Review:
'The book provides an excellent and timely overview on the chemistry and biological applications of various types of nanoparticles and their composites. Starting from the fundamental science of preparation and surface functionalization, the book, following a clear and didactic approach, covers the most important topics which are related to applications of nanoparticles in the biological and medical field. The chapters provide basic principles, detailed insights, and possible applications of the discussed systems and refer the more interested reader to the most important literature. This makes the book a comprehensive reference for graduate students and senior scientists who want to enter this fascinating scientific field at the crossroads of various disciplines.'
