Plasmonic Nanosensors for Biological and Chemical Threats
Biological and chemical warfare agents, including viruses, bacteria, and explosive and radioactive compounds, can induce illness or death in humans, animals, and plants. Plasmonic nanosensors as detection tools of these agents offer significant advantages, including rapid detection, sensitivity, selectivity, and portability. This book explores novel and updated research on different types of plasmonic nanosensors for analysis of biological and chemical threat agents. It covers a brief theory of plasmonic nanosensors, summarizes the state-of-art in the molecular recognition of biological and chemical threat agents, and describes the application of various types of nanosensors in the detection...
Antimicrobial and Antiviral Materials
Emerging microbial and viral infections are a serious challenge to health, safety, and economics around the world. Antimicrobial and antiviral technologies are needed to disrupt the progression and replication of bacteria and viruses and to counter their rapidly evolving resistance. This book discusses recent developments in materials science and engineering in combating infectious diseases and explores advances in antimicrobial and antiviral materials, including polymers, metals, and ceramics and their applications in the fight against pathogens. Features • Covers progress in biomimetic antimicrobial and antiviral materials and antimicrobial/antiviral bulk materials and coatings • Descr...
The Bioprospecting Potentials of Microorganisms for the Synthesis of Bioactive Molecules
This book provides fascinating insights into the isolation and identification of actinomycetes, as well as the synthesis of bioactive molecules like extracellular tyrosinase and nanoparticles by actinomycetes. It shows that microorganisms constitute a huge and almost unexplained reservoir of resources likely to provide innovative and useful applications. The fact that bacteria have survived ever since the origin of life on the earth reveals that this group of organisms is a storehouse for changes that have occurred over millions of years of evolution in response to changing environmental conditions. They are the most abundant and highly diverse group among all organisms living today, and should thus be explored for their synthesis of bioactive molecules like antibiotics, enzymes and nanoparticles.

Religion and Human Enhancement
This collection vigorously addresses the religious implications of extreme human enhancement technology. Topics covered include cutting edge themes, such as moral enhancement, common ground to both transhumanism and religion, the meaning of death, desire and transcendence, and virtue ethics. Radical enhancement programs, advocated by transhumanists, could arguably have a more profound impact than any other development in human history. Reflecting a range of opinion about the desirability of extreme enhancement, leading scholars in the field join with emerging scholars to foster enhanced conversation on these topics.
Luminescence
The book encompasses the nanoscale semiconductor field by amalgamating a broad multidisciplinary arena including applications for energy conservation, materials performance enhancement, electronic circuitry, video displays, lighting, photovoltaics, quantum computing, memory, chemo- and biosensors, pharmaceuticals and medical diagnostics inter alia.
