This book provides a comprehensive review of established,
cutting-edge, and future trends in the exponentially growing field
of nanomaterials and their applications in biosensors and
bioanalyses. Part I focuses on the key principles and transduction
approaches, reviewing the timeline featuring the important
historical milestones in the development and application of
nanomaterials in biosensors and bioanalyses. Part II reviews
various architectures used in nanobiosensing designs focusing on
nanowires, one- and two-dimensional nanostructures, and plasmonic
nanobiosensors with interferometric reflectance imaging. Commonly
used nanomaterials, functionalization of the nanomaterials, and
development of nanobioelectronics are discussed in detail in Part
III with examples from screen-printed electrodes, nanocarbon films,
and semiconductor quantum dots. Part IV reviews the current
applications of carbon nanotubes, nanoneedles, plasmonic sensors,
electrochemical scanning microscopes, and field-effect transistors
with the future outlook for emerging technologies. Attention is
also given to potential challenges, in particular, of taking these
technologies at the point-of-need. The book concludes by providing
a condensed summary of the contents, with emphasis on future
directions. Nanomaterials have become an essential part of
biosensors and bioanalyses in the detection and monitoring of
medical, pharmaceutical, and environmental conditions, from cancer
to chemical warfare agents. This book, with its distinguished
editors and international team of expert contributors, will be an
essential guide for all those involved in the research, design,
development, and application of nanomaterials in biosensors and
bioanalyses.

Immunosensors are widely used and are particularly important for
fast diagnosis of diseases in remote environments as well as
point-of-care devices. In this book, expert scientists are covering
a selection of high quality representative examples from the past
five years explaining how this area has developed. It is a
compilation of recent advances in several areas of immunosensors
for multiple target analysis using laboratory based or
point-of-care set-up, for example graphene-, ISFET- and
nanostructure-based immunosensors, electrochemical magneto
immunosensors and nanoimprinted immunosensors. Filling a gap in the
literature, it showcases the multidisciplinary, innovative
developments in this highly important area and provides pointers
towards commercialisation. Delivering a single, comprehensive work,
it appeals to graduate students and professional researchers across
academia and industry.

Biosensors are increasingly being used to replace traditional
methods of analyte detection in the food industry. They offer a
much quicker, more reliable and more versatile method for the
detection of toxins, allergens, hormones, microorganisms,
pesticides and other related compounds. This book, therefore,
showcases the latest biosensor development in a single resource.
Edited by Minhaz Uddin Ahmed, Mohammed Zourob and Eiichi Tamilya
and with contributors from a list of world renowned scientists,
this book covers the fabrication of biosensors, the development of
miniatursied devices as well as the latest applications in the food
industry. Several case studies of recent European food scandals
emphasise the need for the development of reliable and affordable
food monitoring devices. Up to date information on the current
issues facing food biosensor development is presented in this key
resource for food biotechnologists, food chemists and biosensor
related students and researchers all over the world.
