Description:

This 1166th volume of the journal "Advanced Materials Research" presents the periodic edition from the series "Advanced Materials and Technologies". The collection was compiled from peer-reviewed stand-alone papers describing the results of scientific research and engineering solutions dealing with actual problems in applied materials science in mechanical engineering, electronics, pharmacology, and construction. Published articles will be helpful for engineers, students, and academic staff.

Description: This volume presents the results of studies of the structure, optical, electrochemical, photocatalytic and luminescence properties of nanomaterials and nanoparticles used for electronics and optoelectronics, for the processes of photocatalytic degradation of hazard materials and devices for energy storage. Various approaches to the biosynthesis of nanomaterials are presented, and the most state of the art approach to the synthesis of nanoparticles using eco-friendly sources is shown. Additionally, the volume is devoted to studying the application of nanomaterials in cancer treatment and gene transfection. The research results can find practical applications in various areas of human activity.

Description:

The 49th volume of "Journal of Biomimetics, Biomaterials and Biomedical Engineering" contains papers that reflect the latest results of scientific research and engineering decisions in the fields of human biomechanics; medical images processing for the goal of various cancer diagnostic; processing and application of electrospun biomaterials and porous bioceramics in the medical practice; new materials and technologies for tissue engineering and drug delivery. We hope that this volume will be useful for many researchers and engineers from the different branches of biomedicine.

Description: This volume consists of the selected papers presented at the 3rd International conference and exhibition on Pharmaceutical Sciences and Technology (PST 2020) which was held during 19-20 May 2020, College of Pharmacy, Rangsit University, Thailand. The theme of the conference is “Innovation in Pharmaceutical Sciences”. This research collection brings together multidisciplinary research results covering the researches in the field of materials for pharmaceutical and biomedical applications, cosmeceuticals and cosmetic ingredients, nanomaterials for pharmaceuticals, material characterization as well as technologies of their modification and processing. We hope the volume will offer the readers a good opportunity to access state-of-the-art developments and future directions of researches on materials and technology in pharmacology.

Description: The proceeding of the 8th International Conference on Material Science and Engineering Technology (ICMSET 2019, Singapore, 19-21 October 2019) consists of papers from the universities, research institutes, and industry. The manuscripts were selected after a rigorous peer-review and provide the readers an overview of recent advances in the fields related to materials science and processing technologies, including modeling, analysis, computation, and optimization methods, as well as the experimental procedures in the research of materials properties and technological decisions.

Description: This volume of peer-reviewed papers is from the symposium of life sciences, materials, and applied chemistry. It provides an opportunity for readers to connect with a selection of refereed papers presented during the 5th International Conference on Science and Technology (ICST 2019, July 30-31, 2019, Yogyakarta, Indonesia). The papers published here reflect on the multiple dimensions of the properties of materials and their application, development technologies of synthesis and processing for goals of biomedicine, pharmacology, food production, agriculture, biomass processing, and environmental engineering.

Description: This special issue contains selected papers presented at the 2nd International Conference on Direct Digital Manufacturing and Polymers (2nd CDDMAP 2017) held in Marinha Grande, Portugal. The presented papers are consider some aspects of using the Direct Digital Manufacturing technologies in industry and biomedicine.

Description: This volume contains papers corresponding to communications presented at 30th Symposium and Annual Meeting of the International Society for Ceramics in Medicine (ISCM, October 26‒29, 2018, Nagoya, Japan) and it continues the tradition of the Bioceramics series offering, generally to young researchers, the ability to publish the work they are eager to present to the community of specialists participating in the meeting. The originality of the Bioceramics series is that the papers are available before the meeting to allow deeper, more detailed discussions than those occurring in classical meetings where exchanges are often hampered by the limited time devoted to presentations. These papers might not be perfect, but we believe that the basis for the discussions they provide is irreplaceable.

Description: "Bioceramics 28" (proceedings of the 28th Annual Meeting of the International Society for Ceramics in Medicine, held October 18 to 21, 2016, Charlotte, North Carolina, USA) describes the most recent research efforts in the development of new methods for synthesis and characterization of bioceramics for various applications in the medical field. The multidisciplinary nature of the field of bioceramics has brought together contributions from authors with wide diversity of backgrounds including, clinicians, engineers and scientists. The chapters of the book demonstrate the extensive research efforts directed to exploit the application of bioceramic as a delivery system for anticancer drugs, antibiotics, growth factors, peptides and therapeutic ions. Moreover, the methods of manufacturing and processing of bioceramics as bulk, coating on substrate, gel, porous granules or cement are described.

Description: Contributors of this collection have extensive experience at various field of development the materials and technology for advanced applications. This book is a result of collaboration between all contributing authors who agreed to share their research expertise as well as visions for the future materials development.
