Dendrimers in Nanomedicine

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"Dendrimers in Nanomedicine is a timely, well-edited as well as masterly crafted book written by experts in the field. Although dendrimers were originally proposed to be a cure-all for medicine, it has taken longer than expected to fully appreciate their inherent structural shortcomings as well as potential. With new, novel architectural designs and their availability for critical in-depth in vitro and in vivo testing, the innovative roles of dendrimers in nanomedicine are explored. This book describes the impact of the first three decades of tunable dendritic architectures designed and constructed for nanomedicine, and their future is inspirational. It is a must-read for anyone in the supramolecular polymer/medical arena."
-Prof. George R. Newkome, University of Akron, USA

"Since the first report by Donald Tomalia in 1991, R&D on dendrimers has made exponential progress as a mainstay of nanomedicine. Now close to 7000 articles have been published on dendrimer research. This book covers the research and applications of various dendrimers very well-from their chemistry to their practical medical applications. Therefore, it will be a very good reference for graduate students and expert researchers in the field."
