Electronic Band-Engineered Nanomaterials for Biosafety and Biomedical Application

ConspectusInteraction between nanomaterials (NMs) and biological systems can be beneficial for biological functions but also can present hazards to humans. Nanotoxicology and nanomedicine, as two subdisciplines of nanotechnology, share the same goal of making safer NMs for biomedical application. NMs with unique electronic properties have been widely used for biomedical applications, such as bacterial inactivation, wound healing, tumor therapy,...
