Fundamentals and Biomedical Applications of Chitosan Nanoparticles holistically covers the development and application of chitosan nanoparticles, providing an accessible and interdisciplinary resource for both those new to the field and those who wish to deepen their knowledge. The book begins with an introduction to synthesis methods, fundamental chemistry, characterization, and surface functionalization of chitosan nanoparticles, guiding the reader through each stage of development. A wide range of biomedical applications are explored, from vaccine delivery, tumor targeting, tissue engineering, and wound healing and antimicrobial therapy.This will be a helpful guide for postgraduate students and researchers who are starting out in this field, as well as established researchers in the fields of materials science, nanotechnology, materials chemistry, and bioscience.

Hybrid Polymeric Systems for Biomedical Applications explores the development and utilization of hybrid polymeric systems for use in a range of biomedical applications. Hybrid systems combine the specialized properties of each polymer type to produce a more targeted material which is much more tightly aligned with the intended application and outcome.This book covers a broad selection of hybrid polymeric systems as well as a variety of key biomedical applications, including tissue engineering, drug delivery, wound healing, and more.

Injectable smart hydrogels possess various properties that enable the development of new minimally invasive approaches to avoid problems associated with traditional implants. Researchers in academia and industry will learn the range of synthetic strategies used to produce this emerging class of biomaterials. Clinicians will also be inspired by the range of applications demonstrated to advance surgical procedures.

This book highlights the utilization of biomaterials as emerging suitable and effective flame retardants (FRs) to replace most of the conventional FRs (e.g., halogenated FRs). Biomaterials are considered to be sustainable, biodegradable, and renewable resources. They are abundantly available, which makes them affordable. Information and findings on the characteristics of biomaterials and their use as FRs have been explored. Herein, the tremendous scientific progress made in using biomaterials as flame retardants for a wide range of products is elucidated. The major goal is to draw attention to the opportunities and challenges of switching to biomaterial-based FRs in place of conventional FRs in order to create a sustainable society.
