Recognition Receptors in Biosensors

Product Description

This book will cover most of the up-to-date recognition receptors technologies used in biosensors. Since this book is written by the world’s most renowned and learned scientists in their own area of expertise, we believe that the calibre of the finished product will be as renowned as their reputation. To the best of the editor and author’s knowledge this book is a first in this field. We will aim to cover this increasingly hot area of research especially in relation to the new biosensing techniques.

Most of the universities are teaching the recognition receptors topics in the Biosensors, separation and Microsystems courses. However, there is no single reference book that covers this interesting area. So the aim of this book is to be a textbook for the undergraduate and graduate student upwards, and an important reference for the professionals working in different fields including biomedical, natural sciences, physical sciences, and nanotechnology, m-TAS, veterinary, food QA, bioterrorism and security as well as health surveillance.

The book will cover the different recognition receptors used up-to-date in the different sensing transducer and microarrays platforms. It will cover the background, theory behind each technology, state-of-the-art review for all the new technologies used in biosensing in detail. Strategies and future prospectus are suggested at the end of each chapter for developing future technologies to achieving a better sensitivity, stability and swifter biosensing detection.

Smart Biosensor Technology

Product Description
Synergy is the key to creating more intelligent biosensors. Engineers develop smaller, more integrated technologies; biologists and chemists develop increasingly selective and sensitive sensor elements; material scientists develop ways to bring it all together. However, most books focus only on the chemistry aspects of biosensor technologies. With a multidisciplinary perspective, Smart Biosensor Technology examines the design, applications, and future directions of this rapidly evolving field.

This book collects contributions from leading specialists in a variety of scientific and engineering disciplines involved in different aspects of biosensor design and technology. Five broad sections provide a systematic structure that builds progressively from key concepts to emerging technologies and future directions. Following an introduction to the fundamental characteristics and functions of the underlying technologies, two sections explore the role materials play in developing smart biosensors. Next, the editors devote an entire section to bioelectronics with a focus on a biophotonic material called bacteriorhodopsin and its application to photoelectric biosensing, chemical sensing, and color imaging. They also present design and fabrication of new bioelectronic sensing arrays on flexible substrates. The final section explores a variety of smart biosensor applications in detecting food pathogens, monitoring toxicity, and detecting allergens and viruses.

Building a solid background in the underlying technologies and demonstrating how to apply this knowledge to solve real problems, Smart Biosensor Technology is a comprehensive, interdisciplinary guide to extending the capabilities of biosensors for a broad range of fields.

Electrochemical DNA biosensors based on platinum nanoparticles combined carbon nanotubes

Product Description
This digital document is a journal article from Analytica Chimica Acta, published by Elsevier in . The article is delivered in HTML format and is available in your Amazon.com Media Library immediately after purchase. You can view it with any web browser.

Description:
Platinum nanoparticles were used in combination with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) for fabricating sensitivity-enhanced electrochemical DNA biosensor. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes and platinum nanoparticles were dispersed in Nafion, which were used to fabricate the modification of the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface. Oligonucleotides with amino groups at the 5′ end were covalently linked onto carboxylic groups of MWCNTs on the electrode. The hybridization events were monitored by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) measurement of the intercalated daunomycin. Due to the ability of carbon nanotubes to promote electron-transfer reactions, the high catalytic activities of platinum nanoparticles for chemical reactions, the sensitivity of presented electrochemical DNA biosensors was remarkably improved. The detection limit of the method for target DNA was 1.0×10^-^1^1moll^-^1.
