978-0-323-99596-2 (ISBN)
Nanotechnology is the present age technology, with wide usage in different areas of medical science, including drug delivery, gene therapy, antimicrobials, biosensors and bio-labelling. Nanoparticles play a competent role as an anti-infection agent and thus act as efficient antiviral agents.
Professor Mahendra Rai is a UGC-Basic Science Research Faculty Fellow and former head of the Department of Biotechnology, Sant Gadge Baba Amravati University, India. Presently, he is a visiting Scientist at the Department of Microbiology, Nicolaus Copernicus University, Poland. His areas of expertise include microbial biotechnology and nanobiotechnology. Currently, his group’s main research interest is green synthesis of metal nanoparticles particularly using fungi and their applications as nanoantimicrobials against pathogenic microbes. Prof. Rai has received several prestigious awards, including the Medini Award by the Government of India. He has been featured in Stanford’s list of the top 2% of scientists in nanoscience. Dr Yadav PhD has 10 years of experience in publishing research and review articles in high impact factor journals. She has worked as guest reviewer in prestigious science publications such as Springer, Wiley, Taylor and Frances and has been recognized by Elsevier for her article Silver nanoparticles: as a new generation of antimicrobials which has been cited over 5000 times. She has several book chapters along with a process patent to her credit
