ABSTRACT

This book provides the fundamental aspects of bionanomaterials and bionanotechnology, and insight into the synthesis and modification of bionanomaterials in a detailed manner. It initiates with a general overview of biotechnology and nanotechnology followed by different strategies and methodologies for the synthesis of nanomaterials. Further, it discusses pertinent topics such as protein engineering, analysis, mechanisms of microbe- mediated nanosynthesis, followed by various challenges and innovation strategies, and the role of enzymes in bionanotechnology.

Features:

  • Covers the synthesis of bionanomaterials, including the interaction between nanomaterial and biogenic materials
  • Encompasses the study of the connections between structure, molecular biology, and nanotechnology
  • Explains several techniques (XRD, SEM, TEM, etc.) used for the analysis of bionanomaterials
  • Includes prospects, challenges, and opportunities associated with bionanotechnology
  • Reviews the interaction between nanomaterials and the biological system and self- assembly in bionanotechnology

This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in materials sciences, biotechnology, and bionanotechnology.
