This book begins with an introduction of nanobiotechnology, followed by biosyntheses of AgNPs, development of silver/chitosan (Ag/CS) polymer nanocomposites, synthesis of silver/chitosan-g-poly acrylamide (Ag/CS-g-PAAm) nanocomposite hydrogel and silver/chitosan/poly vinyl chloride (Ag/CS/PVC) blend. Finally, it presents novel bioengineering of polyfunctional metallic nanostructures other than Ag, emphasizing biomass utilization and value-added conversion on an extended span, including life cycle assessment of the synthesized nanostructures.
Features:
- Includes prospective cost effective, eco-friendly, and safe nanomaterials, synthesized through facile path
- Covers synergistic effect of phytochemicals and nano-Ag antimicrobial agents from antiviral perspective
- Includes surface coating systems, super absorbent materials, etc. for biomedical purposes
- Discusses nanobiotechnological applications for generating nanoalloys with synchronized nanostructural arrangement of alkaline earth metals and nanoscale dots of transition metal
- Explores life cycle assessment of the synthesized nanomaterials
This book aims at researchers and graduate students in biomaterials, chemical engineering, green chemistry, nanomaterials, and biotechnology.
