Publisher's Synopsis
Engineered Biomaterials for Drug Delivery covers a core selection of engineering approaches and methods to optimize materials for drug delivery, including grafting, cross-linking, thiolation, conjugation, and the functionalization of biomaterials. A wide range of engineered biomaterial types are described, from biopolymers and nanobiomaterials, to metals, ceramics, and composites. Biocompatibility, toxicity, and regulatory considerations are also thoroughly discussed, ensuring the reader is fully equipped for efficient biomaterials selection and utilization in drug delivery applications.
This is a must-have reference for those working in the fields of materials science, biomedical engineering, pharmaceutical science, pharmacology, chemical engineering, and clinical science.
