Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Metallic Nanoparticles for Health and the Environment covers different routes of synthesis for metallic nanoparticles and their process variables. Both functions and roles of these particles as a drug delivery system, diagnostic agent, and other potential theranostics purposes against metabolic disorders, photo-catalysis applications, as well as wastewater treatments are discussed. It compares different properties among bulk form metallic to their nanoparticulated forms. It discusses mechanisms and impacts of different process variables in different synthesis routes as well as emerging trends in clinics and so forth. Features: Covers different routes of synthesis to create metallic nanoparticles (MNPs) of different characteristics with reference to bulk forms of metals. Describes formulation parameters that have significant effect in these MNPs including dimensions, morphology, mechanism, surface properties and other characteristics. Discusses different roles and performances of MNPs in photo-thermal therapy, metabolic disorders, mechanism in bacterial, fungal, and viral infections and inflammatory pathways. Reviews potential and emerging roles of different MNPs with site target delivery applications and genetic manipulation purposes. Examines advantages and challenges of these MNPs against remediation of pollutants and toxicants, owing to superior surface catalytic activities. This book is aimed at researchers and professionals in nanomaterials, pharmaceuticals, and drug delivery"--
