Engineering Nanoparticles for Biomedical Applications: From Theory to Experiments and Modeling

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 Application
