Advanced Nanotechnology in Bioencapsulation

Dear Colleagues,

In nanomedicine, the administration of a diagnostic or therapeutic agent always raises crucial concerns regarding safety and efficacy. Often, biomimetic techniques or the use of carriers allow to preserve the system integrity and to deliver it more effectively. Moreover, additional features are granted to such complex systems. In this framework, nanotechnology offers numerous possibilities both in bioencapsulation processes and in the composite morphological/functional characterization.

This Special Issue focuses on the latest developments in the bioencapsulation topic, with particular attention to nanotechnology processes or novel nanomaterials exploited in biomedical applications, such as:

• Cell-based therapy
• Drug and gene delivery
• Nanoparticles-based theranostic
• Tissue engineering
• Vaccines development
• Biomarkers identification

You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Applied Nano.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
