"Biomedical Science" encompasses research into engineering and technology applications in human and animal settings, as well as new research into tissue cell cultures, giving an insight into current and emerging trends in the fields. It draws together research from experts around the world, giving a usefully varied range of perspectives. The first part ranges widely across biomedical topics including biomaterials, plant medicine, cell signalling and pathways, insulin resistance, drug transport and mechanisms, nanoparticles for cancer-targeted imaging and therapy, contact lenses, hydrophobic interaction chromatograph and poly (L-glutamic acid)-paclitaxel conjugates for cancer treatment. The second part focuses on tissue cell culture, considering conditions for culture, mycoplasma contamination, single-cell sorting for isolations of breast cancer stem cells, the structure of foetal membranes in in vitro cultivation and the use of animal cell cultures for virus isolation. Each chapter is supported by a thorough review of the relevant literature, making this an excellent starting point for new research. The book will be of interest to undergraduates, students and investigators at the leading edge of biomedical research in disease diagnosis, treatment and modelling.
