Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanotechnology is transforming medicine, leading to innovations such as drug delivery, diagnostics, and improved therapies for illnesses such as hyperthermia. Additionally, the application of nanomaterials in biotechnology is leading to improvements in this field. Developing sustainable nanomaterials through green synthesis methods and focusing on biocompatibility is essential to address these concerns. These materials are crucial for the future applications of medical and biotechnological improvements.
This Special Issue aims to gather cutting-edge research findings and comprehensive reviews on the current progress in the application of nanomaterials in the fields of biotechnology and medicine, with particular attention being paid to green methods of synthesis, the enhanced biocompatibility of nanomaterials, and efficiency in practical applications. This compilation of articles aims to provide insights into the future path of nanotechnology in these crucial areas.
In this Special Issue, we invite submissions of original research and review papers that explore various themes, including, but not limited to, the following:
- Green synthesis of nanomaterials;
- Biocompatibility and toxicity studies of sustainable nanomaterials;
- Nanomaterials in biotechnological applications;
- Applications of nanomaterials in drug delivery and hyperthermia systems;
- Nanomaterials for bio-imaging and diagnostic tools;
- Nanotechnology in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine;
- Advances in nanomaterial-based biosensors.
Please feel free to submit your work for consideration in this Special Issue.

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.
