It also discusses the extensive research developments for the next generation of smart materials. It takes an in-depth look at the current perspectives and market opportunities while pointing to new possibilities and applications. The book addresses important topics such as stimuli responsive polymeric nanoparticles for cancer therapy; polymer gel containing metallic materials; chemotherapeutic applications in oncology; conducting polymer-based gels and their applications in biological sensors; imprinted polymeric gels for pharmaceutical and biomedical purposes; applications of biopolymeric gels in the agricultural sector; application of polymer gels and their nanocomposites in electrochemistry; smart polyelectrolyte gels as a platform for biomedical applications; agro-based polymer gels and their application in purification of industrial water wastes; polymer gel composites for bio-applications. It will be of interest to researchers working in both industry and academia. 410 0$aGels Horizons: From Science to Smart Materials,$x2367-0061 606 $aBiomedical engineering 606 $aPharmaceutical technology 606 $aPolymers 606 $aBiomedical Engineering and Bioengineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T2700X 606 $aPharmaceutical Sciences/Technology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B21010 606 $aPolymer Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C22008 615 0$aBiomedical engineering. 615 0$aPharmaceutical technology. 615 0$aPolymers. 615 14$aBiomedical Engineering and Bioengineering. 615 24$aPharmaceutical Sciences/Technology. 615 24$aPolymer Sciences. 676 $a547.704545 702 $aThakur$b Vijay Kumar$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aThakur$b Manju Kumari$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aVoicu$b Stefan Ioan$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299935103321 996 $aPolymer Gels$91568112 997 $aUNINA
