Metal and Calcium-Phosphate Nanoparticles for Biomedical Applications

Abstract

Nanoparticle research is currently an area of intense scientific research due to variety of potential applications in optics, electronics, biotechnology, health care, biomedical, chemical, and pharmaceutical fields. The physical sizes of these materials create a strong possibility for their interaction with biological systems. Biological systems themselves contain various components that have nanometer dimensions (proteins, nucleic acids, membranes), therefore nanopaticles can be useful both for in vivo and in vitro biological researches and applications. Among the metallic nanoparticles (NPs), the most important materials in nanomedicine are gold, silver, copper, iron, cobalt, nickel, platinum, magnesium, palladium and rhodium.
