Nanostructured Materials for Tissue Engineering

Nanostructured Materials for Tissue Engineering introduces the key properties and approaches involved in using nanostructured materials in tissue engineering, including functionalization, nanotechnology-based regenerative techniques, toxicological and biocompatible aspects. A broad range of nanomaterial types are covered, from polymer scaffolds and nanocomposites to gold nanoparticles and quantum dots. This book aids the reader in materials selection, as well as matching to the best suited application: whether bone, skin, pulmonary or neurological tissue engineering.

Nanostructured Materials for Tissue Engineering offers an up-to-date review of this fast-changing field for materials scientists and tissue engineers, as well as biomedical engineers and pharmaceutical scientists with an interest in regenerative medicine.
