Nanomaterials for Medical Applications
BücherAngebote / Angebote:
This compact reference is an introduction to nanomaterials in medicine, one of the most important areas of current activity within nanoscience. The work reviews potential medical and pharmaceutical applications of nanomaterials and nanotechnologies in several primary areas, including biocompatibility, medical imaging, drug delivery, nanorobots, gene therapy, biosensors and diagnostics. The work covers (1) biocompatibility of nanomaterials with living organisms in their various manifestations, (2) nanobiosensors for clinical diagnostics, detecting biomolecules that are useful in the clinical diagnosis of genetic, metabolically acquired, induced or infectious disease, (3) targeted drug delivery for nanomaterials in their various modifications, (4) nanomedical devices and structures used in the development of implantable medical devices and structures such as nanorobots, (5) nanopharmacology, as novel nanoparticles are increasingly engineered to diagnose conditions and recognize pathogens, identify ideal pharmaceutical agents to treat the condition or pathogens, fuel high yield production of matched pharmaceuticals (potentially in vivo), locate, attach or enter target tissue, structures or pathogens and dispense the ideal mass of matched biological compound to the target regions, and (6) nanotoxicology and remediation, which focuses on finished and ongoing various toxicity evaluations on various nanomaterials that are used and currently being developed for medical applications.
