Smart Polymers: An Emerging Vista for Nanotheranostics

By DIPANKAR CHATTOPADHYAY, Jonathan Tersur Orasugh, Adrija Ghosh

This book covers the analysis of biosensing, site-targeted therapeutics, as well as visual analytics of release profile at the delivery site as possible uses for nanotheranostics therapies following the route of smart polymers. It discusses pH as well as temperature-sensitive polymers and their recent and relevant applications as biomaterials in drug delivery and tissue engineering including dual-stimuli smart polymers.

Features

Informs about the main challenges and prospects of nanotheranostics and smart polymers Covers biomedical application of smart polymers in imaging and therapy Includes a wide description of the different polymer structures, from hydrogel, core-shell to foams and nanofibers Introduces different types of emerging smart polymeric systems Discusses available potential of nanotheranostics and smart polymers toward commercialization

This book is aimed at industrial pharmaceutical experts, higher institution lecturers/teachers, researchers, and graduate students in nanodrug delivery, polymeric delivery, bioimaging, and smart polymers.
