As opposed to conventional electrochemical sensors, nanomaterials-based sensors are active and effective in their action with even a minute concentration of analyte. A number of research studies are bringing about an evolution in their development and advancement because of their unique and effective properties. Nanoscale electrochemical sensors have applications in almost every field of life including the detection of neurochemicals, heavy metals, energy components, body fluids, biological matrices, cancer relevant biomolecules, aromatic hydrocarbons, also in playing their role in food science because of their capability in providing quality control and safety. There is a need to develop these nanomaterials-based electrochemical sensors to be more widely available for accurate sensing of minute concentrations especially in the case of heavy metal detection, biofluids, and other biomaterials. This book outlines the major preparation, fabrication and manufacture of nanomaterials-based electrochemical sensors, as well as detailing their principle medical, environmental and industrial applications in an effort to meet this need. This book is a valuable reference source for materials scientists, engineers, electrochemists, environmental engineers and biomedical engineers who want to understand how nanomaterials-based electrochemical sensors are made, and how they are used.

Sustainable Use of Nanoparticles in Agriculture explores the specific challenges of understanding and applying the catalytic efficacy of nanotechnology for agricultural crop improvement. Focusing specifically on the nanomaterial-based metal organic frameworks as single atom catalysis to improve their applicability through innovations in the makeup, style and structure of those catalysts. Nano-nutrition is the implementation of nanotechnology to provide nano-sized nutrients to grow crops addressing both biotic and abiotic nutrients. As abiotic nutrients or NPs are obtained from inorganic substances such as salts, they post challenges as many of these are un-biodegradable whereas biotic nutrients are made from organic sources that are biodegradable and eco-friendly. This book presents research into nano-nutrition that has been undertaken to create a methodology for improving plant nutrition that is sustainable and effective. Sustainable Use of Nanoparticles in Agricultures focuses on utilizing nano-nutrition to improve plant productivity in both micro-and macronutrients on a wide scale without environmental risks. This book is an important reference for researchers and academics seeking insights into the potential means to improve crop plant health.
