Serving as a reference manual to guide readers through the possibilities for employing carbon-based nanostructured materials, this book fills a gap in the literature for graduate students and professional researchers discussing the advantages and limitations across analytical chemistry in industry and academia.
Nanotechnology brings new possibilities for the development of sensors, biosensors, and novel electrochemical bioassays. Nanoscale materials have been extensively used in a wide variety of configurations- as electrode surfaces to promote electrochemical reaction, as "wires" to enzymes connecting their redox centers to electrode surface, as nanobarc
The book is about the application of nanotechnology in the field of medicine, with a focus on diagnosis and therapy. The first few chapters introduce the basics of material engineering and nanobiomedicine, followed by chapters on different types of engineered nanomaterials and their surface modification strategies for biomedicine. The book then covers the application of nanobiomedicines and nanodiagnostics in clinical settings, and how functionalized nanomaterials can be used in microfluidic biosensors and diagnosis devices. The latter half of the book discusses various nanobiomaterials used in cancer diagnosis and therapy, as well as regenerative medicine, infectious diseases, and bioimaging. The book concludes with a chapter on the commercial aspects of nanobiomedicines.
