Carbon Nanomaterials for Biological and Medical Applications. A volume in Micro and Nano Technologies

Nanomaterials for Biological and Medical Applications explores the different applications of carbon nanomaterials in drug and gene therapies and their use in tissue regeneration, biosensor diagnosis, enantiomer separation of chiral drugs, extraction and analysis of drugs and pollutants, and as antitoxents.

The book describes the synthesis processing of carbon nanomaterials, carbon composite nanomaterials, and their different biological and biomedical applications, including the removal of biologically toxic materials, optical biosensor applications, bio-imaging probe, drug delivery, cancer treatments, and other biomedical applications.

• Explains the major synthesis chemical process of carbon nanomaterials for biological applications
• Discusses how carbon nanomaterials can be practically used to create more efficient nanodevices in biosensing, medical imaging, and drug delivery
• Explores how the unique physical properties of carbon nanomaterials allows them to remove biologically toxic materials
