Bionanotechnology for Advanced Applications

This book provides the fundamental aspects of bionanomaterials and bionanotechnology, and insight into the synthesis and modification of bionanomaterials in a detailed manner. It initiates with a general overview of biotechnology and nanotechnology followed by different strategies and methodologies for the synthesis of nanomaterials. Further, it discusses pertinent topics such as protein engineering, analysis, mechanisms of microbe- mediated nanosynthesis, followed by various challenges and innovation strategies, and the role of enzymes in bionanotechnology. Features: Covers the synthesis of bionanomaterials, including the interaction between nanomaterial and biogenic materials Encompasses the study of the connections between structure, molecular biology, and nanotechnology Explains several techniques (XRD, SEM, TEM, etc.) used for the analysis of bionanomaterials Includes prospects, challenges, and opportunities associated with bionanotechnology Reviews the interaction between nanomaterials and the biological system and self- assembly in bionanotechnology This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in materials sciences, biotechnology, and bionanotechnology.
