The chapters of the book discuss the role of nanotechnology in the efficient diagnosis and treatment of these diseases. It explicitly provides an overview of nanodiagnostics for infectious diseases from nanoparticles-based, nanodevice-based, and point-of-care platforms. The book also covers the state-of-the-art review of recent progress in biomimetic and bioengineered nanotherapies to treat infectious diseases. It also presents a nano carrier-based CRISPR/Cas9 delivery system for gene editing and its applications for developing interventional approaches against communicable diseases. Further, it reviews the recent developments in nanotechnology to engineer nanoparticles with desired physicochemical properties as a line of defense against multi-drug resistance micro-organisms. Cutting across the disciplines, this book serves as a guide for researchers in biotechnology, parasitology, and nanotechnology. 001445971 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed April 22, 2022). 001445971 650_0 $$aNanomedicine. 001445971 650_0 $$aCommunicable diseases$$xDiagnosis$$xTechnological innovations. 001445971 650_0 $$aCommunicable diseases$$xTreatment$$xTechnological innovations. 001445971 650_6 $$aMaladies infectieuses$$xTraitement$$xInnovations. 001445971 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001445971 7001_ $$aHameed, Saif. 001445971 7001_ $$aRehman, Suriya. 001445971 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aHameed, Saif.$$tNanotechnology for Infectious Diseases.$$dSingapore : Springer Singapore Pte.
