In this edited book, we highlight the central players in the
Bionanotechnology field, which are the nanostructures and
biomolecules. The book starts by describing how nanostructures are
synthesized and by describing the wide variety of nanostructures
available for biological research and applications. Also shown are
the techniques used to synthesize a wide variety of biological
molecules. Next, there is a focus on the assembly of nanostructures
with biological molecules, which could lead to the design of
multi-functional nanosystems. In the following chapters, examples
of the unique properties of nanostructures are provided along with
the current applications of these nanostructures in biology and
medicine. Some applications include the use of gold nanoparticles
in diagnostic applications, quantum dots and silica nanoparticles
for imaging, and liposomes for drug delivery. In the final chapters
of the book, the toxicity of nanostructures are described. This
book provides broad examples of current developments in
Bionanotechnology research and would be an excellent introduction
to the field.
