Description for Carbon Nanotubes for Biomedical Applications
Hardback. This book explores the potential of multi-functional carbon nanotubes for biomedical applications. It details different synthesis and biofunctionalisation routes and shows the structural and magnetic properties of nanotubes relevant to biomedical applications. Editor(s): Klingeler, Rudiger; Sim, Robert B. Series: Carbon Nanostructures. Num Pages: 291 pages, biography. BIC Classification: MQW; PHVN; PSF; TC; TGM. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 22. Weight in Grams: 668.
This book explores the potential of multi-functional carbon nanotubes for biomedical applications. It combines contributions from chemistry, physics, biology, engineering, and medicine. The complete overview of the state-of-the-art addresses different synthesis and biofunctionalisation routes and shows the structural and magnetic properties of nanotubes relevant to biomedical applications. Particular emphasis is put on the interaction of carbon nanotubes with biological environments, i.e. toxicity, biocompatibility, cellular uptake, intracellular distribution, interaction with the immune system and environmental impact. The insertion of NMR-active substances allows diagnostic usage as markers and sensors, e.g. for imaging and contactless local temperature sensing. The potential of nanotubes for ... Read more
