| Contents |
From nanoparticles to nanocomposites: a brief overview -- Polymers for biomedical applications: chemical modification and biofunctionalization -- Nanocapsules as carriers for the transport and targeted delivery of bioactive molecules -- Inorganic nanoparticles biofunctionalization -- Silica-based materials: bioprocesses and nanocomposites -- Synthetic strategies for polymer-based nanocomposite particles -- Synthesis of nanocomposite particles using supercritical fluids: a bridge with bio-applications -- Biocomposites containing magnetic nanoparticles -- Multifunctional nanocomposite particles for biomedical applications -- Bio-applications of functionalized magnetic nanoparticles and their nanocomposites -- Anti-microbial polymer nanocomposites -- Biosensing applications using nanoparticles |
| Summary |
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 of their constituent materials, and the tailoring of bio-interfaces that might be relevant for the fields of clinical diagnosis and drug delivery procedures, among others bio-applications. Examples of materials described in this book include particles composed of a polymer matrix containing dispersed inorganic nanophases and other bio-fu |
