Nanoparticles: Synthesis, Functionalization, Properties, and Biomedical Applications comprehensively and systematically details the fundamental aspects of nanoparticles, addressing the synthesis techniques, functionalization strategies, unique properties, and their transformative role in biomedical applications. In an era where nanotechnology has revolutionized our understanding of matter at the nanoscale, this reference serves as a one-stop-shop exploration of nanoparticles and their applications in biomedicine. Divided by inorganic and organic nanoparticle classes, this book guides the reader through each nanoparticle type, from magnetic, gold, and quantum dot nanoparticles, through to protein-based nanoparticles, dendrimers and liposomes. Synthesis techniques and unique properties are covered in detail, along with how each of these best suits each biomedical application; advantages and challenges are analysed, enabling the reader to make informed materials selections. With a strong focus on materials development, Nanoparticles: Synthesis, Functionalization, Properties, and Biomedical Applications provides a holistic introduction to this topic, along with a look to current research and future opportunities. This book is of use to researchers, academics, and post-graduate students in the fields of materials science, nanotechnology, biomedical engineering, and biomedical science, with an interest in the development of novel nanomaterials.
