Nanocellulose and nanohydrogel matrices

Více o knize

This first book on nanocellulose and nanohydrogels for biomedical applications offers a comprehensive overview of advancements in nanocellulose and nanohydrogel-based nanocomposites. It explores various nanocellulose materials, their developments in drug delivery, and nanomedicine, including synthesis, characterization, and applications in biotechnology and biomedicine. The text addresses the current status and future perspectives of bacterial cellulose and polyester hydrogel matrices, detailing their preparation, characterization, and applications in tissue engineering with biodegradable water-soluble hydrogel matrices. Additionally, it discusses chitosan-based hydrogel and nanogel matrices, their roles in biofabrication technologies, and their impact on biosensors, biopharmaceuticals, tissue engineering, implant materials, diagnostic probes, and surgical aids. The history, classification, synthesis methods, and challenges of cellulose-based and conducting polymer-based nanohydrogels are also covered, along with recent advances related to inhibitors of apoptosis proteins. The book provides insights into recent developments in drug delivery, particularly regarding nanofibrillated cellulose and copoly(amino acid) hydrogel matrices in biotechnology and biomedicine. It serves as an essential reference for researchers and academics in chemistry, pharmacy, microbiology, materials science, and biomedical engineering.
