Nanoparticles in Biology and Medicine Methods and Protocols

From the book reviews:

“This is another of the series ‘Methods in Molecular Biology’ and covers various aspects of the synthesis, applications and characterization of nanoparticles. … this book makes a very useful source of information for those interested in how nanoparticles can be used for various imaging techniques and applications such as drug delivery. Those wishing to synthesise nanoparticles for these applications will also find it a useful guide with easy to follow methods and guidance.” (Bobbi Bradford, BTS Newsletter – The British Toxicology Society, Issue 43, Winter, 2013)

“This is a how-to-do-it manual on the applications of nanoparticles in modern medicine. … This book is of great value for anyone who is involved in the manufacturing, modification, analysis, or application of nanoparticles for use in medicine. … This volume represents a comprehensive and cutting-edge resource for investigators at all levels who have an interest in the application of nanoparticle technology to a wide range of uses in the biomedical and pharmaceutical fields … .” (Thomas L. Pazdernik, Doody’s Book Reviews, February, 2013)

“This book aims to cover the complete production process for such nanoparticles, including their synthesis, physicochemical characterization, and toxicity and efficacy evaluation. … the articles are clearly structured, and the protocols are easy to follow. … The index listing both keywords and abbreviations helps the novice researcher to find the desired protocol. … this book could be useful to researchers from a broad range of disciplines interested in protocols for methods outside their direct field of expertise.” (Eleonore Fröhlich, ChemMedChem, Issue 8, 2013)
