Protein Based Nanocomposites for Tissue Engineering by Showkat Ahmad Bhawani Book PDF Summary
Protein-based Nanocomposites for Tissue Engineering details the design, development, efficacy and tissue engineering applications of a range of protein-based nanocomposite materials. Protein-based nanocomposites offer advantageous properties in that they are biodegradable, biocompatible, nonantigenic, highly stable and possess strong binding capacity. These unique properties make protein-based nanocomposite carriers promising candidates for controlled cell delivery in tissue engineering. This book covers a selection of protein types in their nanocomposite form, from albumin and keratin to collagen and silk. Each protein nanocomposite is described in detail, exploring their application in cell delivery and tissue engineering. The design, development, properties and molecular mechanism of protein-based nanocomposites is thoroughly discussed before going on to analyze the advantages and limitations of these useful materials, making this book an ideal resource for readers who want to explore biocompatible and naturally derived material options for tissue engineering applications. Academics and researchers in the fields of materials science, biomedical engineering, regenerative medicine and nanotechnology will find the book a must have. Provides an overview of protein-based nanocomposites and their unique properties, including biocompatibility and toxicity Covers recent advances in the design and development of protein nanocomposites, helping the reader anticipate challenges and improve efficiency of development Details a range of protein types in their nanocomposite form, including key and readily available proteins such as fibrin, soy, collagen and silk
