Abstract

Intelligent nanomaterials can make dramatic changes in interdisciplinary medicine. They have versatile biomedical applications that are discussed in this chapter. Typically, this chapter focuses on five groups of intelligent nanoparticles and nanocomposites, including polymeric, lipid-based, carbon-based, metal- lic, and hybrid materials. In each group, available nanomaterials are introduced according to their ability to be controllably responsive to the alteration of pH, light, temperature, stress, moisture, electric/magnetic fields, and other external stimuli. Finally, the applications, limitations, challenges, and future trends of these nano- structured materials arediscussed. © 2017 Scrivener Publishing LLC. All rights reserved.
