Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView:
Eight chapters written by Saudi and Indian researchers describe metallic glyconanoparticles and gold nanoparticles for medical applications, the antibacterial activity of silver nanoparticles, the sonochemical synthesis of metal oxide-based bhasmas, and surface-enhanced Raman scattering for molecular detection. A lengthy paper outlines present developments and future prospects for using titanium-based nanoparticles and nanomaterials in experimental in vivo and in vitro studies, biosensors, and diagnostic devices.
