Advances in Nano and Biochemistry: Environmental and Biomedical Applications

Advances in Nano and Biochemistry: Environmental and Biomedical Applications gives insight in the advanced interdisciplinary science that encompasses the principles of physics and physical chemistry for the investigation of various processes and problems in biological systems. The book is a concise culmination of biophysical chemistry knowledge acquired through core concepts and advanced technologies for addressing the emerging challenges in environmental and biomedical applications. Section I introduces developments of early diagnostic techniques and accurate treatment strategies using bioinspired, sustainable technologies, including nanomaterials, nanoenzymes, biopolymers, electrochemical biomolecule sensors, biocompatible magnetic nanomaterials, quantum dots and hybrid structures, and DNA nanotechnology. Section II discusses advanced technologies for sensing and remedying environmental pollutants, including but not limited to, photocatalytic oxidations, gum polysaccharides based nanostructured materials, bio-inspired and biocompatible nanomaterials, hydrogel nanocomposites, and contemporary enzymes and nanozymes basedtechnologies. Ultimately, these state-of-the-art chapters in Advances in Nano-Biophysical Chemistry empower researchers to combine two complementary elements - chemical analysis use with biomedical application.
