Inorganic Biomaterials for Drug Delivery

Inorganic Biomaterials for Drug Delivery, 1st Edition, provides a reference covering traditional inorganic matrices and novel nanobiomaterials configured for therapeutic delivery applications. The volume guides researchers and postgraduate students across materials science, biomedical engineering, pharmaceutical science, and nanotechnology through the core physical and chemical principles that govern inorganic drug carriers.

The text synthesizes major material classes into clear thematic sections. It examines carbon-based nanostructures, including carbon nanotubes and carbon dots, alongside metallic and metal oxide nanoparticles such as silver, iron, platinum, titanium dioxide, and iron oxides. These chapters detail structural properties, synthesis approaches, and therapeutic integration methods relevant to drug delivery systems.

A central feature of the volume is its systematic coverage of biocompatibility, toxicity parameters, and regulatory considerations governing material selection. This grounded analysis prepares R&D groups developing novel materials for biomedical applications to assess safety requirements alongside functional therapeutic capabilities.
