STM publisher Elsevier has announced the publication of Functionalized Nanomaterials for the Management of Microbial Infection: A Strategy to Address Microbial Drug Resistance edited by Rabah Boukherroub, Sabine Szunerits and Djamel Drider. The new book provides readers with backgrounds in nanotechnology, chemistry and materials science an understanding of the main issues concerning microbial drug resistance and its challenges. Elsevier also announced the publication of four additional microtechnology and nanotechnology books.
Functionalized Nanomaterials for the Management of Microbial Infection features real-life case studies that illustrate how functionalized nanomaterials are used to manage microbial infection. It provides the information that readers need to integrate antibacterial nano-particles into future treatments. Topics addressed in the book include the role of the food chain in the spread of antimicrobial resistance; penetrating the bacterial biofilm; metal nanoparticles for microbial infection; lipid-based nanopharmaceuticals in antimicrobial therapy; and graphene-microbial interactions.
The five new microtechnology and nanotechnology titles are: Functionalized Nanomaterials for the Management of Microbial Infection: A Strategy to Address Microbial Drug Resistance edited by Rabah Boukherroub, Sabine Szunerits and Djamel Drider; Emerging Nanotechnologies in Food Science edited by Rosa Busquets; Emerging Nanotechnologies in Rechargeable Energy Storage Systems edited by Lide Rodriguez-Martinez and Noshin Omar; Emerging Nanotechnologies for Diagnostics, Drug Delivery and Medical Devices edited by Ashim Mitra, Kishore Cholkar and Abhirup Mandal; and Nanostructures for Novel Therapy: Synthesis, Characterization and Applications edited by Denisa Ficai and Alexandru Grumezescu.
In order to meet content needs in microtechnology and nanotechnology, Elsevier uses proprietary tools to identify the gaps in coverage of the topics. Editorial teams strategically fill those gaps with content written by key influencers in the field, giving students, faculty and researchers the content they need to answer challenging questions and improve outcomes. These new books will educate the next generation of microtechnologists and nanotechnologists, and provide critical foundational content for information professionals.
