Guanghui Ma received her Bachelor’s degree in polymer
engineering at Gunma University, Gunma, Japan, in 1988. She
obtained her MSc in 1990 and PhD degree in 1993 in polymer
chemistry from Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan. After a year
as a research fellow at Tokyo Institute of Technology, she was
appointed assistant professor in the Department of Chemical
Engineering, Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology, Japan,
in 1994, and assistant professor in the Graduate School of
Bio-Applications and Systems Engineering, Tokyo University of
Agriculture and Technology in 1996. In 2001, she was appointed
professor at the Institute of Process Engineering (IPE), Chinese
Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China. Currently she is the vice
president of IPE , director of the National Engineering Research
Center for Biotechnology (Beijing), and editorial board member of
Journal of Microencapsulation and Particuology.
Prof. Ma’s research interest includes biomaterials and
bioformulations. Her expertise lies in the preparation of
uniform-sized and structure-controllable microspheres and
microcapsules for bioseparation media, controlled release carriers,
enzyme immobilization and vaccine adjuvants, with 150 peer-reviewed
papers in international journals, 6 English and 3 Chinese
scientific books, and a number of book chapters. She also has more
than 20 patents and collaborations with industry for technology
applications. She received several awards in science and
technology, including Science and Technology Prize 2005 of Beijing,
National Technological Invention Prize 2009 of China, and Asian
Regional Young Women Researcher Award 2009 from
TWAS-TWOWS-SCOPUS.
Professor Zhiguo Su received his bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering from Dalian University of Technology (DUT), Dalian, China, in 1982 and PhD in biochemical engineering from the University of Manchester, England, in 1985. After a year as a postdoctoral fellow at Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands, in 1986, he became a lecturer of DUT in 1987, associate professor in 1988, and professor in 1991. He was a visiting scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA, in 1990 and 1992–1993. Currently he is the director of the National Key Laboratory of Biochemical Engineering and Professor at Institute of Process Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China. Prof Su’s research interest focuses on biomolecular and bioprocess engineering. He has been responsible for several major research projects on biopharmaceutical process technologies in China over the past few years, including production of hepatitis B vaccine, pegylated cytokines, and modified hemoglobin as blood substitutes. He has published more than 160 papers in international journals on protein refolding, modification and drug delivery. He was a committee member of a number of international conferences and serves as the editorial board member of Artificial Cells, Blood Substitutes and Biotechnology and Journal of Chemical Technology and Biotechnology and the associate editor of Chinese Journal of Biotechnology.
"There has been an ever-increased interest in novel functional
microspheres and microcapsules over recent years. This book
presents state-of-the-art studies on developing microspheres and
microcapsules for various applications in bioprocessing, drug
delivery, and medicine, including the authors’ own research, which
is an excellent source to inspire scientists and engineers in this
area."
—Prof. Zhibing Zhang, University of Birmingham, UK"Focusing on
applications to biotechnology, this book discusses the recent
developments in the principles of design and preparation
methodology of microspheres and microcapsules and those of novel
results and information obtained by experts of each subject. The
readers can find detailed routes from basic chemistry to various
biological and medical applications in this book. The selected
topics should be of particular interest to readers who belong to
research facilities in companies and universities treating
bio-related subjects at the cutting edge."
—Prof. Toshiaki Dobashi, Gunma University, Japan"This book provides
a snapshot of how to design and prepare microspheres and
microcapsules specifically for bio-related applications. The
diverse topics covered are actively investigated with contributions
from leading experts in the field. I believe this book will serve
to provide a background for researchers and graduate students
working in this interesting field and also be a source of
inspiration for future work in this discipline."
—Prof. To Ngai, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong
