Summary

Summary

The book series Nanomaterials for the Life Sciences , provides an in-depth overview of all nanomaterial types and their uses in the life sciences.

Each volume is dedicated to a specific material class and covers fundamentals, synthesis and characterization strategies, structure-property relationships and biomedical applications. The series brings nanomaterials to the Life Scientists and life science to the Materials Scientists so that synergies are seen and developed to the fullest.

Written by international experts of various facets of this exciting field of research, the series is aimed at scientists of the following disciplines: biology, chemistry, materials science, physics, bioengineering, and medicine, together with cell biology, biomedical engineering, pharmaceutical chemistry, and toxicology, both in academia and fundamental research as well as in pharmaceutical companies.


VOLUME 3 - Mixed Metal Nanomaterials
This volume covers the aspects of synthesis, characterization and application of bimetallic and multielemental spherical and anisotropic nanomaterials in the life sciences.
