Infos

The book contains 33 chapters divided into four sections: Drug Discovery, Drug Delivery and Regulatory/ Toxicological Aspects, Biomedical Applications, and Phytochemical Applications of Nanotechnology. This book describes in detail the importance of nanotechnology in drug development and drug delivery with special emphasis on the applications of nanotechnology in biomedical sciences. It also mentions the applications of nanotechnology in diverse fields including latest applications like 3D printing and omics based nanomedicine. This book develops the concepts with history of nanotechnological research, understanding of functional properties of nanoparticles and nanoformulations and covers nanotubes, nanorods, nanofibres and fullerenes, nanotechnology based biosensors in drug delivery. This book has been written for postgraduate students and researchers working in the fields of drug discovery, scientists dealing with drug formulations in academia and industry and prospective researchers in the related fields. It will provide a one-stop solution to readers seeking information on the latest technological developments and biomedical applications of nanopharmaceuticals and allied fields.
