An overview of current research and developments inultrasensitive bioanalysis
New platforms of ultrasensitive analysis of biomolecules andsingle living cells using multiplexing, single nanoparticlesensing, nano-fluidics, and single-molecule detection are advancingevery scientific discipline at an unprecedented pace. With chapterswritten by a diverse group of scientists working in the forefrontof ultrasensitive bioanalysis, this book provides an overview ofthe current status and an in-depth understanding of the objectivesand future research directions of ultrasensitive bioanalysis.Spanning a wide spectrum of new research approaches, this book:
* Introduces new theories, ideas, methodologies, technologies,and applications of ultrasensitive bioanalysis in a wide variety ofresearch fields
* Includes background, fundamentals, and descriptions ofinstrumentation and techniques behind every experimental design andapproach to help readers explore the promising applications of newtools
* Covers single molecule detection (SMD), single living cellanalysis, multi-functional nanoparticle probes, miniaturization,multiplexing, quantitative and qualitative analysis of metal ionsand small molecules, and more
* Discusses techniques such as single molecule microscope andspectroscopy, single nanoparticle optics, single nanoparticlesensors, micro- and nano-fluidics, microarray detection,ultramicroelectrodes, electrochemiluminescence, mass spectrometry,and more
This book will be a useful resource and an inspiration forscientists and graduate and undergraduate students in a widevariety of research fields, including chemistry, biology,biomedical science and engineering, and materials science andengineering.
