Nanomedicine in Drug Delivery
CRC Press (Verlag)
978-1-138-07261-9 (ISBN)
Featuring contributions by leading researchers from around the world, the book examines:
The integration of nanoparticles with therapeutic agents
The synthesis and characterization of nanoencapsulated drug particles
Targeted pulmonary nanomedicine delivery using inhalation aerosols
The use of biological systems—bacteria, cells, viruses, and virus-like particles—as carriers to deliver nanoparticles
Nanodermatology and the role of nanotechnology in the diagnosis and treatment of skin disease
Nanoparticles for the delivery of small molecules, such as for gene and vaccine delivery
The use of nanotechnologies to modulate and modify wound healing
Nanoparticles in bioimaging, including magnetic resonance, computed tomography, and molecular imaging
Nanoparticles to enhance the efficiency of existing anticancer drugs
The development of nanoparticle formulations
Nanoparticles for ocular drug delivery
Nanoparticle toxicity, including routes of exposure and mechanisms of toxicity
The use of animal and cellular models in nanoparticles safety studies
With its practical focus on the design, synthesis, and application of nanomedicine in drug delivery, this book is a valuable resource for clinical researchers and anyone working to tackle the challenges of delivering drugs in a more targeted and efficient manner. It explores a wide range of promising approaches for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases using cutting-edge nanotechnologies.
Arun Kumar, Ph.D., is an assistant professor in the Department of Medical Laboratory Science and the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Delaware. Dr. Kumar has filled in more than 26 patents on his research related to biosensors and nanotechnology. He has presented his work at more than 60 international conferences worldwide, published more than 35 peer-reviewed research articles and two book chapters, and is an editorial board member of Sensors and Transducers Journal. Heidi M. Mansour, Ph.D., RPh, is an assistant professor of pharmaceutics and drug delivery at the University of Kentucky College of Pharmacy, a faculty associate at the University of Kentucky Center of Membrane Sciences, and a graduate faculty member at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill. She serves on the editorial advisory boards of eight journals in drug delivery and nanomedicine, is a member of the NIH U.S. Pediatric Formulations Initiative New Drug Delivery Systems Aerosols Working Group, and is a delegate to the U.S. Pharmacopeia (USP). Dr. Mansour has published more than 40 peer-reviewed scientific publications, five book chapters, and more than 80 abstracts. Adam Friedman, MD, FAAD, is an assistant professor of dermatology and physiology/biophysics and serves as director of the Dermatologic Research at the Unified Division of Dermatology of Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Dr. Friedman investigates novel nanotechnologies that allow for controlled and sustained delivery of a wide spectrum of physiologically and medicinally relevant molecules. He holds several patents and has published more than 80 papers/chapters on his research as well as on a variety of clinical areas in dermatology. Dr. Friedman recently published the first textbook on nanotechnology and dermatology and serves as vice president of the Nanodermatology Society. Eric Blough, Ph.D., is an associate professor and director of pharmacology and toxicology at the School of Pharmacy at Marshall University. In addition to his academic duties he is also the director for the Center for Diagnostic Nanosystems. A prolific researcher and publisher, Dr. Blough and his colleagues have received over $11 million in research awards since 1998 and published more than 150 scientific manuscripts, technical reports, and abstracts—all while maintaining a strong focus on student development and mentoring in his teaching.
