Metallic, magnetic and carbon-based nanomaterials : synthesis and biomedical applications / Ajit Khosla, Ishrad A. Wani, Mohammad N. Lone Hoboken, New Jersey : John Wiley, 2025 xii, 457 p. : ill. ; 26 cm Electro chemical society series Includes bibliographical references and index. Nanotechnology, at the intersection of physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering, revolutionizes our approach to manipulating matter at the atomic and molecular levels. Through the creation of metallic, magnetic, and carbon-based nanomaterials, scientists unlock unprecedented opportunities for innovation across diverse fields, particularly in biomedicine. These tiny structures boast unique properties, paving the way for groundbreaking advancements in drug delivery, imaging, diagnostics, and therapeutic interventions. Various classes of nanoparticles, including gold and silver, magnetic ferrites, quantum dots, carbon nanotubes, and silica-based/polymeric nanoparticles, have multifaceted biomedical applications. They are used for bioimaging (CT, MRI), biosensing, drug delivery (targeted and controlled), photothermal therapy, cell tracking, tissue engineering, and vaccine adjuvants. These nanoparticles offer precise visualization, enhanced drug delivery, and therapeutic efficacy, revolutionizing diagnostics, therapy, and personalized medicine. The power of nanotechnology is harnessed as a journey toward personalized medicine and transformative healthcare solutions is embarked upon, ushering in a new era of precision and efficacy in medical treatment.
