Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanoparticles, nanomaterials, nanorods, core–shell nanoparticles, and hybrid nanoparticles have been extensively studied for various biomedical applications. Their applications are diverse such as contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and X-ray computed tomography (CT), drug delivery, fluorescent imaging, biolabeling, biosensing, etc. Their properties are superior to conventional molecules and chelates. There have been many reports regarding their synthesis, characterization, and applications, demonstrating their unique and advanced properties, which are extremely useful for the diagnosis of diseases.
The aim of this Special Issue is to report a variety of nanoparticles and nanomaterials that can be applied to biomedicine, nanomedicine, and nanobiology. These include the synthesis of nanoparticles and nanomaterials and their characterizations using various techniques, surface modifications, and in vitro and in vivo applications. Surface modification with hydrophilic and biocompatible ligands is essential for their biomedical applications. This Special Issue will cover a variety of nanoparticles and nanomaterials that can be applied to biomedicine, nanomedicine, and nanobiology.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
