This book covers topics related to drug delivery, biomaterials, drug design, formulation development, nanoscience, and nanotechnology. It describes the fundamental concepts in nanotechnology and their different applications in biotechnology to solve engineering challenges and generate new areas of technological development. Nanobiotechnology: Applications of Nanomaterials in Biotechnology, Medicine, and Healthcare covers vast application areas that include medical science, material science, pharmaceutical science, and environmental science. Section 1 presents recent research updates on the different nanomaterials, which are promising in different medical and biotechnological applications. Applications of nanomaterials as bone replacement orthopedic implants have revolutionized the treatment of orthopedic surgery. Nanostructured polymeric materials have gained immense research attention as therapeutic carriers for the precise delivery of drugs at targeted sites. Nanocellulose is recognized as a promising green nanomaterial due to its renewability and abundance in nature. Scientific topics on the most recent scientific and technological advances and applications of different nanostructured materials are presented in this section. Section 2 focuses on the novel synthesis methods that are used extensively and are promising for large-scale production of inorganic and nanostructured materials. Section 3 covers the applications of nanotools in the treatment of different diseases, including cancers and genetic diseases. The increasing use of nanotechnology will bring changes in the manufacturing processes of nanomaterials. The applications of nanomaterials in the field of medical imaging and molecular detection are presented in section 4. This book will be useful for students, researchers, scientists, academicians, and industrial manufacturers to understand the importance and applicability of nanomaterials in the field of biotechnology and medical science.
