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.

  • Details the regulatory, toxicological, and clinical considerations of chitosan nanoparticles for biomedical applications
  • Describes the various methods of synthesis, surface functionalization, crosslinking, and grafting of chitosan nanoparticles
  • Reviews a broad range of biomedical applications of chitosan nanoparticles that will appeal to an interdisciplinary readership
