Metal and Metal Oxide-Based Antiviral and Antibacterial Nanoparticles: Synthesis, Functionalization, and Applications

Metal and Metal Oxide Based Antiviral and Antibacterial Nanoparticles: Synthesis, Functionalization, and Applications reviews the unique benefits of metal and metal oxide nanoparticles in the fight against viral and bacterial infections. The book is organized into seven distinct parts, guiding readers from introductory knowledge to advanced concepts and real-world applications. It explores synthesis techniques, functionalization strategies, characterizations, and a wide range of applications, including diagnostics, drug delivery, and wound healing. A selection of key case studies for individual metals and metal oxides is provided, highlighting innovative research and translational aspects for each.

The book will be of interest to academics and researchers in the fields of materials science, biomaterials, nanotechnology, and pharmaceutical sciences.
