Nanotechnology provides an innovative platform for drug delivery and antiviral actions. This book discusses the utilization of nano-based formulations for the control of viral agents. The antiviral potential of green synthesized silver, chitosan nanoparticles encapsulating curcumin, photoinduced antiviral carbon nanohorns, and the role of carbon-based materials like fullerenes and carbon nanotubes in the repression of viral antigens are explained. The book also covers nanomaterial-based solutions for SARS-CoV-2 and other viral infections.
Features:
- Explains theory and practical applications of nanomaterials as antiviral agents
- Reviews upscaling of nanomaterials from laboratory to fabrication stage
- Illustrates nanocurcumin, silver nanoparticles, and carbon nanoparticles for biomedical applications
- Highlights role of nanotechnology in effectively combating viral infections and pandemics
- Includes case studies of specific pharma companies
This book is aimed at researchers, graduate students in materials science, microbiology and virology, and pharmaceutical sciences.
