Abstract

Nanosystems have been developed and applied as promising vehicles for various important biomedical applications. Renewable resources are gaining increasing attention as a source for environmentally benign biomaterials, such as drug encapsulation/release compounds, scaffolds for tissue engineering, and drug delivery systems for cancers. Because of the remarkable absorption capacity, biodegradability, and non-toxicity, lignin nanoparticles can be applied as appropriate vehicles for drug molecules and inorganic particles. In this chapter, some important biomedical and therapeutic applications of lignin nanoparticles are highlighted, briefly. © Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2020.
