<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>A comprehensive discussion of various types of nanoengineered biomaterials and their applications </b></p> <p>In <i>Nanoengineering of Biomaterials: Drug Delivery & Biomedical Applications</i>, an expert team of chemists delivers a succinct exploration of the synthesis, characterization, in-vitro and in-vivo drug molecule release, pharmacokinetic activity, pharmacodynamic activity, and the biomedical applications of several types of nanoengineered biomaterials. The editors have also included resources to highlight the most current developments in the field. </p> <p>The book is a collection of valuable and accessible reference sources for researchers in materials chemistry and related disciplines. It uses a functions-directed approach to using organic and inorganic source compounds that translate into biological systems as scaffolds, micelles, dendrimers, and other delivery systems. </p> <p><i>Nanoengineering of Biomaterials</i> offers readers up-to-date chemistry and material science insights that are readily transferrable to biomedical systems. The book also includes: </p> <ul> <li>Thorough introductions to alginate nanoparticle delivery of therapeutics and chitosan-based nanomaterials in biological applications </li> <li>Comprehensive explorations of nanostructured carrageenan as a drug carrier, gellan gum nanoparticles in drug delivery, and guar-gum nanoparticles in the delivery of bioactive molecules </li> <li>Practical discussions of protein-based nanoparticles for drug delivery, solid lipid nanoparticles as drug carriers, and pH-responsive nanoparticles in therapy </li> <li>In-depth examinations of stimuli-responsive nano carriers in drug targeting </li> </ul> <p>Perfect for pharmaceutical chemists, materials scientists, polymer chemists, life scientists, and medicinal chemists, <i>Nanoengineering of Biomaterials: Drug Delivery and Biomedical Applications</i> is also an indispensable resource for biologists and bioengineers seeking a one-stop reference on the transferability of materials chemistry and nanotechnology to biomedicine. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Dr. Sougata Jana is a B. Pharm, Gold Medalist from West Bengal University of Technology (WBUT), and a Ph.D from Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University of Technology(MAKAUT), West Bengal (Formerly Known as WBUT). IPA Bengal branch, Kolkata, India conferred him ?M.N Dev Memorial Award?. He published 30 research and review papers in different national and international peer reviewed journals. He has edited 6 books for Springer & Elsevier and has contributed more than 40 book chapters Elsevier, Springer, Wiley VCH, CRC Press, Taylor & Francis group. He is reviewer of various international journals such as Elsevier, Wiley, Springer, Taylor and Francis, Dove Press etc. He is a lifetime member of Association of Pharmaceutical Teachers of India (APTI) and Associateship from Institution of Chemists (AIC), India. He successfully supervised many postgraduate research projects and has a long-standing experience in teaching and research in the field of pharmacy. He is working in the field of drug delivery science and technology including modification of synthetic and natural biopolymers, microparticles, nanoparticles, semisolids and interpenetrating network (IPN) system for controlled drug delivery. <p/> <br> Dr. Subrata Jana works as Associate Professor at the Department of Chemistry, Indira Gandhi National Tribal University (Central University), Amarkantak, Madhya Pradesh, India. His research focuses on design and synthesis of artificial receptors for the recognition of anions, cations and N-methylated protein residues and collaboratively works on biodegradable polymeric-based carrier systems for the delivery of drug molecules. He has published research papers in peer-reviewed international journals and contributed in several edited books published by internationally renowned publishers. He also serves as an editorial board member for the Journal of PharmaSciTech and International Journal of Scientific and Engineering Research as well as reviewer for International Journal of Biological Macromolecule (Elsevier), Journal of PharmaSciTech and Current Pharmaceutical Design (Bentham). He obtained his PhD in organic chemistry from the Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology (IIEST), Shibpur, India and worked on supramolecular and medicinal chemistry as a post-doctoral fellow at University of Victoria, Canada. Then, he moved to University of Utah, USA, to work on protein engineering and enzyme catalysis as a post-doctoral research associate. He has extensive experience in supramolecular behaviour of the host-guest interaction and synthesis of heterocyclics.<br>
