| Summary |
This book covers current nanotechnology-based nanotherapeutics involving gold nanoparticles, colloids, gels, magnetic nanoparticles, radiofrequency, gene therapy, biological particles, and the intermolecular interactions associated with nanoparticle based cancer therapy in vivo. Both scientific and clinical aspects are considered to make the connection between cancer and effective drug delivery and therapeutic strategies. |
