Characterization and Biology of Nanomaterials for Drug Delivery: Nanoscience and Nanotechnology in Drug Delivery

Nanosystems with different compositions and biological properties have been extensively investigated for drug delivery and therapeutic applications. This book explores both the classes of nanomaterial, their characterization and biological interactions, and the applications of nanomaterials in drug delivery. By providing a broad range of knowledge regarding synthesis and characterization, readers are enabled to develop a fuller understanding of drug delivery technology.

The chapters of this volume describe the techniques successfully employed for the application of nanocarriers loaded with the antioxidant enzyme, catalase, and targeted to endothelial cells. Methods of nanocarrier synthesis, loading within various systems, and the characterization of nanocarrier for targeting activities are covered in this volume. The advantages and disadvantages and applications of specific designs are explored by the authors. Due to the modular nature of the targeting methodology employed, it is believed that these protocols will provide a solid foundation for the formulation of a wide variety of nanodrug targeting strategies.

Reflecting the interdisciplinary nature of the subject matter, this book includes contributions by experts from different fields, with various backgrounds and expertise. This book will appeal to researchers as well as students from different disciplines such as materials science and technology and various biomedical fields. Coverage includes industrial applications, and bridge the gap between lab-based research and practical industrial applications.

The resulting work is a reference, and practical source of guidance for researchers, students and scientists working in the fields of nanotechnology, materials science and technology and biomedical science.

The interdisciplinary approach and authorship enables readers from different fields to access recent research and protocols across traditional boundariesThe focus on protocols and techniques, as well as the knowledge base of the field, will enable those in industry (R&D) to learn about and successfully deploy cutting-edge techniquesCurrent and emerging classes of nanomaterials are explored, with their fundamentals and applications made accessible to an inter-disciplinary readership from academic and industrial spheres
