Advances in Nanostructured Materials between Pharmaceutics and Biomedicine 2.0

Dear Colleagues,

Nanostructured materials are materials containing an internal or surface structure in the nanometer length scale on which their properties depend. Organic, inorganic, and hybrid nanostructures find broad application across several areas of pharmaceutics and biomedicine. In particular, medicinal chemistry, drug delivery, and tissue engineering have benefited from the progress in such technologies. Considerable advances have characterized the recent application of nanostructured materials in medicine, from diagnostic biosensors to scaffolds for tissue engineering, without forgetting the high relevance in catalysis and biocatalysis applied to biology and chemical synthesis.

This Special Issue aims at the most recent advances in nanostructured material across chemistry and biology, including manufacturing and potential toxicity issues. Particular importance will be given to applications in medicinal chemistry and flow chemistry, targeted and local drug nanocarriers, nanostructured matrices for controlled release, biosensors, and functional nanomaterials and their biological relevance.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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. Pharmaceutics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2900 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.
