Nanobiosensors Summary

Nanobiosensors: Volume 8 by Alexandru Grumezescu (Assistant Professor, Department of Science and Engineering of Oxide Materials and Nanomaterials, Faculty of Applied Chemistry and Materials Science and Faculty of Medical Engineering, Politehnica University of Bucharest, Romania)

Nanobiosensors: Nanotechnology in the Agri-Food Industry, Volume 8, provides the latest information on the increasing demand for robust, rapid, inexpensive, and safe alternative technologies that monitor, test, and detect harmful or potentially dangerous foods. Due to their high sensitivity and selectivity, nanobiosensors have attracted attention for their use in monitoring not only biological contaminants in food, but also potential chemical and physical hazards. This book offers a broad overview regarding the current progress made in the field of nanosensors, including cutting-edge technological progress and the impact of these devices on the food industry. Special attention is given to the detection of microbial contaminants and harmful metabolotes, such as toxins and hormones, which have a great impact on both humans and animal health and feed.

Nanobiosensors Reviews

"Through discussing the applications of nanotechnology in biosensor development for food testing and analysis, the book presents a very full list of sensor techniques. The volume fulfils the series aims of bringing together the most recent and innovative applications of nanotechnology in the agri-food industry and of presenting future perspectives in the design of new or alternative foods. This is a book that will benefit not only workers in food testing and analysis but also broader areas of the chemical and biosensing community, although it could have potentially been further enriched with the comments of the commercialisation status of the biosensors discussed." --Johnson Matthey Technology Review
