    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    This book discusses the utilization of nano-based formulations for control of viral agents. Antiviral potential of green synthesized silver, chitosan nanoparticles encapsulating curcumin, photoinduced antiviral carbon nanohorns, and role of carbon-based materials like fullerenes &carbon nanotubes in repression of viral antigens are explained.

    Long description:

    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.
