Inhaltsangabe

Drug Delivery and Biomedical Applications of Porous Silicon-Based Nanocarriers delivers an up-to-date and complete overview of the range of biomedical applications for porous silicon nanomaterials, with a special emphasis on drug delivery. This book introduces the fundamentals and beneficial properties of porous silicon, including thermal properties and stabilization, photochemical and nonthermal chemical modification, protein modification, and biocompatibility. The book then builds on the systematic detailing of each biomedical application using porous silicon, such as vaccine development, drug delivery, and tissue engineering. It also contains new insights on in-vivo assessment of porous silicon, photodynamic and photothermal therapy, micro- and nanoneedles, cancer immunotherapy, and more. Drug Delivery and Biomedical Applications of Porous Silicon-Based Nanocarriers is of interest to researchers in the fields of materials science, nanotechnology, pharmaceutical science, biomedical engineering, and cancer research.
