Handbook of Nanobiotechnology e-bog

Bionanotechnology, nanobiotechnology, and nanobiology are terms that refer to the intersection of nanotechnology and biology. Given that the subject is one that has only emerged very recently, bionanotechnology and nanobiotechnology serve as blanket terms for various related technologies. This discipline helps to indicate the merger of biological research with various fields of nanotechnology. Concepts that are enhanced through nanobiology include: nanodevices, nanoparticles, and nanoscale phenomena that occurs within the discipline of nanotechnology. This technical approach to biology allows scientists to imagine and create systems that can be used for biological research. Biologically inspired nanotechnology uses biological systems as the inspirations for technologies not yet created. This book covers special topics such as biomaterials science, fabrication and characterization of nanostructures, marketing strategies of nanotechnology, biomedical aspects, applications of nanomedicine and novel drug delivery systems and health and environmental impacts of nanotechnology. This book would be useful to students, researchers and teachers of all branches of science.
