The modern fascination with micro- and nano-sized materials can
actually be traced back further to the 1960s and ‘70s when the
first few reported attempts were made to use nanoparticles for
controlled drug delivery. In Nanoparticles in Biology and
Medicine: Methods and Protocols, experts in the field present a
wide range of methods for synthesis, surface modification,
characterization, and application of nano-sized materials
(nanoparticles) in life science and medical fields, mostly for drug
delivery. The methods presented cover all stages of nanoparticle
manufacturing, modification, analysis, and applications.
Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology™
series format, chapters include introductions to their respective
topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents,
step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips
on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
Comprehensive and cutting-edge, Nanoparticles in Biology and
Medicine: Methods and Protocols will help the beginner become
familiar with this fascinating field and will provide scientists at
all levels of expertise with easy-to-follow practical advice needed
to make, modify, and analyze nanoparticles of their choice and to
use them in a wide range of biomedical and pharmaceutical
applications, including functional protein studies, drug delivery,
immunochemistry, imaging, and many others.
