Design of Nanostructures for Antimicrobial, Antioxidant and Nutraceutical Applications focuses on antimicrobial, antioxidant and nutraceutical applications of nanostructured materials. Many books discuss these subjects, but not from a pharmaceutical point-of-view. This book covers novel approaches related to the modulation of microbial biofilms, antimicrobial therapy and encapsulate polyphenols as antioxidants. Written by an internationally diverse group of academics, this book is an important reference resource for researchers, both in biomaterials science and the pharmaceutical industry.
Assesses the most recently developed nanostructures that have potential antimicrobial properties, explaining their novel mechanical aspects
Shows how nanoantibiotics can be used to more effectively treat disease
Provides a cogent summary of recent developments in nanoantimicrobial discovery, allowing readers to quickly familiarize themselves with the topic

Описание: Biofilms have grown into a major issue that poses hazards to all life forms. This book reviews strategies which can be employed to combat biofilms.Chapter 1 demonstrates that microbial biofilms are generated when a polymeric matrix surrounds a collection of single or heterogeneous microbial organisms. Chapter 2 discusses how biofilm resistance to antimicrobial drugs has become a global problem for medical researchers. Chapter 3 discusses how even though antibiofilm tactics are helpful, they are still worth investigating because each strategy is limited by physiological parameters such as composition, osmolarity, and bacterial species. Chapter 4 reveals that biofilms are diverse microbial societies dwelling in diverse environments. Chapter 5 confers emerging biofilm eradication tendencies and tactics, as well as the treatment of biofilm-related medical problems. Chapter 6 examines how biofilms pervasiveness makes its removal extremely challenging. Chapter 7 looks at a variety of recently discovered nano-established biomaterials as well as the approaches that are being used to create antibiofilm surfaces. Finally, Chapter 8 discusses how microbial biofilms, which are generated by the aggregation of single or varied microbial species encased in a polymeric matrix, are a frequent way for bacteria to shield themselves against environmental challenges and antibacterial treatments.

Описание: This book provides a survey of recent advances in the development of antibiofilm agents for clinical and environmental applications. The fact that microbes exist in structured communities called biofilms has slowly become accepted within the medical community. We now know that over 80% of all infectious diseases are biofilm-related; however, significant challenges still lie in our ability to diagnose and treat these extremely recalcitrant infections. Written by experts from around the globe, this book offers a valuable resource for medical professionals seeking to treat biofilm-related disease, academic and industry researchers interested in drug discovery and instructors who teach courses on microbial pathogenesis and medical microbiology.

Описание:
Nanostructures for Antimicrobial Therapy discusses the pros and cons of the use of nanostructured materials in the prevention and eradication of infections, highlighting the efficient microbicidal effect of nanoparticles against antibiotic-resistant pathogens and biofilms.
Conventional antibiotics are becoming ineffective towards microorganisms due to their widespread and often inappropriate use. As a result, the development of antibiotic resistance in microorganisms is increasingly being reported. New approaches are needed to confront the rising issues related to infectious diseases. The merging of biomaterials, such as chitosan, carrageenan, gelatin, poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) with nanotechnology provides a promising platform for antimicrobial therapy as it provides a controlled way to target cells and induce the desired response without the adverse effects common to many traditional treatments.
Nanoparticles represent one of the most promising therapeutic treatments to the problem caused by infectious micro-organisms resistant to traditional therapies. This volume discusses this promise in detail, and also discusses what challenges the greater use of nanoparticles might pose to medical professionals. The unique physiochemical properties of nanoparticles, combined with their growth inhibitory capacity against microbes has led to the upsurge in the research on nanoparticles as antimicrobials. The importance of bactericidal nanobiomaterials study will likely increase as development of resistant strains of bacteria against most potent antibiotics continues.
