Summary:

Bio-nanocomposites form a unique class of a research area that
integrates biology, chemistry, materials science, engineering and
nanotechnology to present an interdisciplinary approach for solving
of problems. In todays world, bio-nanocomposites are becoming
increasingly prevalent due to the extraordinary properties that they
possess. Scientists learn to select suitable matrices (eg: aliphatic
polyesters, polypeptides and proteins, polysaccharides, and
polynucleic acids) and fillers (eg: nanotubes, nanofibers, clay
nanoparticles, hydroxyapetite and metal nanoparticles) and alter
their chemistry and structure to suit the target field. This book
provides the most recent research made in the field of
bio-nanocomposites as applied to biomedical fields including
drug-delivery, biosensors, cancer diagnosis, and tissue engineering.
