Nanomaterials for Chemical Sensors and Biotechnology

This textbook is intended to serve as a reference guide to the interdisciplinary
fields of nanomaterials, sensors and biotechnology. It demonstrates functional
applications of nanotechnology in diverse areas such as environmental sensing
and space habitation, to medical diagnostics and tissue regeneration. With a
focus on novel materials synthesis, such as using the nanomanufacturing technique
of electrospinning to get the longest nanowires possible, a correlation is made
of the effect of chemical, structural, and morphological features to achieve
extreme materials functionality. This publication will serve as a manual to
nanotechnology for both novices and experts alike, and from the materials scientist
to the biophysicist and bioengineer and the medical scientist.
