Preface of the series
The era of nanosized materials is now considered the center of the evolution
of future tools and emerging technologies with wide applications in industry,
research, health, and beyond. Despite recent scientific progress, biological appli-
cations of nanomaterials are far from being depleted and current knowledge is
limited by the poor access to significant data, but also by widespread and usually
unfounded speculation. Although exhaustive, the current literature is difficult to
reach and understand because of the specificity and strict focuses of researchers
investigating different applicationsof nanomaterials.
Inthiscontext,thescientificseriesentitled“ApplicationsofNanobiomaterials”
was motivated by the desire of the Editor, Alexandru Mihai Grumezescu, and
others to bring together comprehensive, up-to-date, and relevant findings on the
field of biological applications of nanostructured materials, to promote the knowl-
edge and expand our vision regarding future perspectives. Even though the
approached domain is quite specific and research-oriented, this multivolume set is
easilyintelligiblefor awide audienceincluding:under-graduate andpost-graduate
students, engineers, researchers, academic staff, pharmaceutical companies,
biomedicalsector andindustrialbiotechnologies.However,somebasicknowledge
of the field of materials science (nanobiomaterials, pharmaceutical industry,
products for medicinal treatments, nanoarchitectonics for delivery of biological
active molecules and release, bone implants and stomatology) and engineering is
arequisiteforunderstandingtechnicalaspects.
The selected authors of each chapter are outstanding specialists in the field of
nanobiomaterials, who have made impressive contributions in a specific area of
research orapplied area within the scope ofthisbook.
Each of the 11 volumes of the series contains 15 chapters, addressing the most
relevantand recent matters on the field of the volume.
The first volume, Fabrication and Self-Assembly of Nanobiomaterials, intro-
duces the reader to the amazing field of nanostructured materials and offers inter-
esting information regarding the fabrication and assembly of these nanosized
structures. In Volume II, entitled Engineering of Nanobiomaterials, readers can
easily findthemostcommonlyinvestigatedmethods andapproachesforobtaining
tailored nanomaterials for a particular application, especially those with a
great deal of significance in the biomedical field. In the following step, readers
will discover the importance and the ways of modifying the surface of nanostruc-
tured materials to obtain bioactive materials, by reading Volume III, Surface
Chemistry of Nanobiomaterials. Starting with Volume IV Nanobiomaterials in
Hard Tissue Engineering and Volume V Nanobiomaterials in Soft Tissue
Engineering,thebiomedicalapplicationsofengineerednanomaterialsarerevealed
and discussed, focusing on one of the most impacted fields, tissue engineering.
Volume VI, Nanobiomaterials in Antimicrobial Therapy, highlights the potential
