Biological Nanostructures and Applications of Nanostructures in
Biology: Electrical, Mechanical, and Optical Properties contains
reviews and discussions of contemporary and relevant topics dealing
with the interface between the science and technology of
nanostructures and the science of biology. Moreover, this book
supplements these past groundbreaking discoveries with discussions
of promising new avenues of research that reveal the enormous
potential of emerging approaches in nanobiotechnology. The topics
include: - Biomedical applications of semiconductor quantum dots, -
Integrating and tagging biological structures with nanoscale
quantum dots, - Applications of carbon nanotubes in bioengineering,
- Nanophysical properties of living cells, - Bridging natural
nanotubes with fabricated nanotubes, - Bioinspired approaches to
building nanoscale devices and systems, - Hairpin formation in
polynucleotides. This state-of-the-art survey of key developments
in nanotechnology - as they apply to bioengineering and biology -
is essential reading for all academics, biomedical engineers,
medical physicists, and industry professionals wishing to take
advantage of the latest developments and highly-promising
discoveries in nanoscience underlying applications in
bioengineering and biology.
