Book Description
Biological Synthesis of Nanoparticles and Their Applications gives insight into the synthesis of nanoparticles utilizing the natural routes. It demonstrates various strategies for the synthesis of nanoparticles utilizing plants, microscopic organisms like bacteria, fungi, algae and so forth. It orchestrates interdisciplinary hypothesis, ideas, definitions, models and discoveries associated with complex cell of the prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
Highlights:
- Discusses biological approach towards the nanoparticle synthesis
- Describes the role of nanotechnology in the field of medicine and its medical devices
- Covers application and usage of the chemicals at the molecular level to act as catalysts and binding products for both organic and inorganic Chemical Reactions
- Reviews application in physics such as solar cells, photovoltaics and other usage
Microorganisms can aggregate and detoxify substantial metals because of different reductase enzymes, which can diminish metal salts to metal nanoparticles. The readers after going through this book will have detailed account of mechanism of bio-synthesis of nanoparticles.

He received his Ph.D. degree in Microbiology
from the VIT University in 2013.
As a PhD fellow at the VIT, he has gained valuable experience
in marine actinobacteria diversity and its secondary metabolite
potential. During his PhD research, Dr. L. Karthik isolated
and characterized the protease inhibitors from marine actinobacteria.
He made the intriguing discovery of the protease
inhibitor and gold nanoparticles for antimalarial treatment.
This observation suggests that, in the future it could be considered
as a new antimalarial drug. In his first postdoctoral training
at the Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China (2015–2017), he
was involved in a project titled “Activation cryptic gene from
sponge associated marine actinobacteria” under the guidance of
eminent scientist Prof. Zhiyong Li. In order to extend his
expertise in the synthetic biology strategies for activating cryptic
gene from marine actinobacteria, he was pleased to accept
a postdoctoral fellow position in East China University of
Science and Technology (ECUST) (2017-2019). His interest, as
a postdoctoral fellow at ECUST, is to understand the In Vitro
CRISPR/Cpf1mediated BAC cloning of large biosynthetic gene
cluster to activate cryptic genes under the guidance of eminent
scientist Prof. Lixin Zhang.
He has published 58 research papers in international and
national peer-reviewed journals (Nanomedicine, PLOS ONE,
Parasitology Research) (H-index: 18). He is a reviewer in
several reputed journals. He is a life member in IAAM,
Chemical Biology Society, European Society of Nanomedicine,
Indian Association of Parasitology, International Society
for Applied Life Sciences and Communication committee
member of International Chemical Biology Society.
In 2016, he received the Prestigious “Young Scientist
Award” from the Indian Association of Applied Microbiologists
for his outstanding research work and he also received
the Best Research Scholar Award – 2012 from VIT University.
He received the 200 young scientist – 2012 fellowship
(DST) to attend the international conference.
Dr. A. Vishnu Kirthi is currently
works as a Post-Doctoral Research
Scientist at the National Centre for
Nanotechnology and Nanosciences,

journals and has authored many book chapters
as well as review articles. He has several awards and
recognitions from different national as well as international
organizations.
Dr. V. Mohana Srinivasan is a microbiologist
working as Assistant Professor (Sr)
at VIT University, Vellore, Tamil Nadu,
India. He has about 15 years of experience
in teaching and research. He has
published 107 papers in reputed journals
and has filed two research patents. Currently
his research is focused on industrial
enzymes and proteins to combat myocardial
infarction and bacterial proteins for biopreservation with
