Synopsis

Practical approach to solution-based synthesis methods and mechanisms from a chemical engineering perspective

Engineering Nanoparticles for Biomedical Applications provides an in-depth, hands-on overview of synthesis and formation mechanisms, characterization, and functionalization of nanoparticles (NPs) using solution-based methods developed from fundamental principles of nucleation and growth. Various experimental synthesis strategies are supported via simulation and modeling. The NPs studied in this book are designed to target an array of biomedical applications.

In this book, readers can practice reverse engineering by first choosing a specific biomedical application, upon which the reader will be exposed to a host of synthesis options. Based on desired properties of NPs, this book can then provide all the relevant information using experimental and modeling approaches for that specific biomedical application.

Sample topics covered in Engineering Nanoparticles for Biomedical Applications include:

• Physico-chemical properties of NPs such as magnetic, plasmonic, and stimuli-sensitivity properties
• Modeling approaches including Density Functional Theory (DFT), Molecular Dynamics (MD), Monte Carlo simulations, and Population Balance Model
• Applications of NPs with emphasis on biomedical applications such as biosensing, diagnostics/imaging, and drug delivery
• Optical, magnetic, stimuli-responsive, and biological properties of multifunctional nanoparticles
• Spherical and anisotropic iron oxide and gold nanoparticles, polymeric nanoparticles and multifunctional nanoparticles

Engineering Nanoparticles for Biomedical Applications is an essential reference on the subject for chemists and engineers at every level of academia and industry.
