Multifunctional Bio-Nanomaterials for Health Care

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Bio-nanotechnology pivoted the current world-class health care division by awarding excellent biomaterials to treat the injured body parts of patients. Bio-nanomaterials with increased surface area proved to enhance the faster repair/cure on successful implantation. Bio-scaffolds developed using various biocompatible polymers loaded with specialized biomaterials can be designed by various strategies and are now considered the savior of many organs between plenty of individuals. Designing biomaterial with unique care and methods and supplying it in various forms like injectable hydrogels, powder, nano-coating, nano-fibers, etc., are the thrust area of interest. The superior composites and the particular compositions reasonable for the elucidated bioactivity and osteo-integration are the curious part of scientific discussions. On the other hand, investigation on crystallographic structure and functional groups of the prepared biomaterial and mechanical stability are highly advanced and found to be predominant. Moreover, the biomaterials for superior drug delivery, wound healing, angiogenesis, anti-corrosion, etc., are also a focus. This Special Issue highly focusses on, but not limited to, structure and functional analysis, mechanical stability, bioactivity, biocompatibility, polymeric scaffolds, bio-nanocoatings, bio-nanofibres various forms of biomaterials, etc., and their characterizations and uniqueness.

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. Molecules 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 2700 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.
