Nanotechnology and Biosensors shows how nanotechnology is used to create affordable, mass-produced, portable, small sized biosensors to directly monitor environmental pollutants. In addition, it provides information on their integration into components and systems for mass market applications in food analysis, environmental monitoring and health diagnostics. Nanotechnology has led to a dramatic improvement in the performance, sensitivity and selectivity of biosensors. As metal-oxide and carbon nanostructures, gold and magnetite nanoparticles, and the integration of dendrimers in biosensors using nanotechnology have contributed greatly in making biosensors more effective and affordable on a mass-market level, this book presents a timely resource on the topic.

Highlights nanotechnology-based approaches to the detection of enzyme inhibitors, direct enzymatic and microbial detection of metabolites, and nutrients using biosensors
Includes examples on how nanotechnology has lead to improvements in the construction of portable, selective and sensitive biosensing devices
Offers thorough coverage of biomarker/biosensor interaction for the rapid detection of toxicants and pollutants

"This text covers a lot of ground and will be of interest to those wishing for a general overview of the range of nanomaterials used for biosensing in environmental, food and medical sensing applications. There is some repetition of introduction and technical detail between the chapters which allows them to be read in isolation and all are well referenced for those looking for more detail in a particular application." --Johnson Matthey Technology Review
