Analytical Biotechnology presents a set of technologies that provide state-of-the art tools for genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, drug discovery, screening, and analysis of biomolecules such as DNA, proteins, and small metabolites. Thus, the book covers topics from immunoassays and biochips to nano-biochemistry. Moreover, it aims to apply advanced automation and microfabrication technology to the development of biosensor devices as well as integrated systems. This volume promotes cross-disciplinary approaches directed toward solving key problems in biology and medicine. Each chapter...

Modern analytical biotechnology is focused on the use of a set of enabling platform technologies that provide contemporary, state-of-the-art tools for genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, drug discovery, screening, and analysis of natural product molecules. Thus, analytical biotechnology covers all areas of bioanalysis from biochips and nano-chemistry to biology and high throughput screening. Moreover, it aims to apply advanced automation and micro fabrica tion technology to the development of robotic and fluidic devices as well as integrated systems. This book focuses on enhancement...
