(Ebook) Nanobiotechnology & nanobiosciences by Claudio Nicolini ISBN 9789814241380, 9814241385

Nanobiotechnology is capable of yielding a scientific and industrial revolution, as envisioned by the numerous programs on nanotechnology launched over the last decade by councils and governments worldwide, beginning in late 1995 by the Science and Technology Council in Italy, by President Clinton of the USA, and recently by Prime Minister Putin of the Russian Federation. This volume introduces, in a coherent and comprehensive fashion, the Pan Stanford Series on Nanobiotechnology by defining and reviewing the major sectors of nanobiotechnology and nanobiosciences with respect to the most recent developments. It covers the basic principles and main applications of nanobiotechnology as an emerging field at the frontiers of biotechnology and nanotechnology, with contributions from leading scientists active in their respective specialties. Contents: Nanoscale Materials; Nanoscale Probes; Nanoscale Applications in Health and Science; Nanoscale Applications in Industry and Energy Compatible with Environment.
