1st Edition
Advanced Nanomaterials for Biological, Nutraceutical, and Medicinal Applications
This new volume discusses a selection of nanomaterials that can be employed for advanced biological, nutraceutical, and medicinal applications. It discusses diverse nanomaterials and their classifications, their advanced therapeutic properties, using biosensors in detecting biological threat agents, bionanomaterials for human health, the medicinal applications of nanomaterials, clinical toxicities of nanomaterials and their use in remediation.
The book also includes a chapter that provides a helpful comparison of market analysis between biological and synthetic nanomaterials. The volume concludes with an insightful perspective on possible future applications of nanomaterials as nutraceutical, biological, and medicinal agents.
