Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

As cutting-edge anticancer and antimicrobial agents, nanomaterials have been extensively used in pharmaceutics as alternative therapeutic modalities to established therapeutics. In particular, functionalized nanomaterials with stimuli-responsive (endogenous and exogenous) properties have been synthesized as a nanoplatform and used for different biomedical applications. Nevertheless, further studies must be conducted to develop new nanoplatforms that optimize the potential of these stimuli-responsive nanomaterials with good biocompatibility and clinical optimization. This Special Issue will shed light on the use of stimuli-responsive nanomaterials as potential candidates for various biomedical applications, especially as anticancer and antimicrobial agents, and draw the scientific community’s attention to further challenges and avenues of research in this field.  Authors are invited to submit original research articles and reviews in this important and exciting research field.

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. Pharmaceutics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2900 CHF (Swiss Francs). 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.
