New Frontiers in Ultrasensitive Bioanalysis / Chemical Analysis: A Series of Monographs on Analytical Chemistry and Its Applications (PDF)

An overview of current research and developments in
ultrasensitive bioanalysis

New platforms of ultrasensitive analysis of biomolecules and
single living cells using multiplexing, single nanoparticle
sensing, nano-fluidics, and single-molecule detection are advancing
every scientific discipline at an unprecedented pace. With chapters
written by a diverse group of scientists working in the forefront
of ultrasensitive bioanalysis, this book provides an overview of
the current status and an in-depth understanding of the objectives
and future research directions of ultrasensitive bioanalysis.
Spanning a wide spectrum of new research approaches, this book:

* Introduces new theories, ideas, methodologies, technologies,
and applications of ultrasensitive bioanalysis in a wide variety of
research fields

* Includes background, fundamentals, and descriptions of
instrumentation and techniques behind every experimental design and
approach to help readers explore the promising applications of new
tools

* Covers single molecule detection (SMD), single living cell
analysis, multi-functional nanoparticle probes, miniaturization,
multiplexing, quantitative and qualitative analysis of metal ions
and small molecules, and more

* Discusses techniques such as single molecule microscope and
spectroscopy, single nanoparticle optics, single nanoparticle
sensors, micro- and nano-fluidics, microarray detection,
ultramicroelectrodes, electrochemiluminescence, mass spectrometry,
and more

This book will be a useful resource and an inspiration for
scientists and graduate and undergraduate students in a wide
variety of research fields, including chemistry, biology,
biomedical science and engineering, and materials science and
engineering.
