This book offers comprehensive coverage of biomarker/biosensor interactions for the rapid detection of weapons of bioterrorism, as well as current research trends and future developments and applications. It will be useful to researchers in this field who are interested in new developments in the early detection of such. The authors have collected very valuable and, in some aspects indispensable experience in the area i.e. in the development and application of portable biosensors for the detection of potential hazards. Most efforts are centered on the development of immunochemical assays...

Nanotechnology and biosensors shows how nanotechnology is used to create affordable, mass-produced, portable, small sized nanosensors to directly monitor food toxicants and environmental pollutants. This book provides a timely resource on the subject.
