This book focuses on the recent advances in nanomedicine and tissue engineering. It outlines the basic tools and novel approaches that are becoming available in nanomedicine and tissue engineering and considers the full range of nanomedical applications which employ molecular nanotechnology inside the human body, from the perspective of a future practitioner in an era of widely available nanomedicine.
Topics include:
- Health benefits of phytochemicals and application of superparamagnetic nanoparticles for hyperthermia
- Silver nanoparticles in nanomedicine
- Optical diagnostic of molecules and cells using nanotechnology
- Nanoparticulate drug delivery system for antiviral drugs
- Liposomal drug delivery systems, nanoemulsifying drug delivery system (SNEDS)
- Functionalization of tissue engineering scaffolds
- Induction of angiogenesis in scaffolds
- Many other recent achievements
Written by some of the most innovative minds in medicine and tissue engineering, this book considers the full range of nanomedical applications which employ molecular nanotechnology inside the human body and will help professionals understand cutting-edge and futuristic areas of nanomedicine and tissue engineering research. Readers will find insightful discussions on nanostructured intelligent materials and devices that are considered technically feasible and that have a high potential to produce advances in medicine in the near future.
"Provides a clear and thorough insight into the current applications of nanotechnology in medicine. With its broad scope, this book reaches topics like the use of magnetic hyperthermia for the selective destruction of cancer cells, as well as green synthesis of metal nanoparticles and the surface functionalization of nanoparticles. Equally significant, it delves into the current trends of drug delivery techniques, including various nanocarriers, a self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system, and scaffolding techniques. It features several chapters related to tissue engineering, focusing on scaffold fabrication techniques like electrospinning, the materials used, and their applications, especially in wound dressings. Ideal for professionals in the field, the chapters contained here give an in-depth look at the current state of nanomedicine and tissue engineering, and present this information in an easily comprehensible manner."
