Understand the principles, practices, and applications of bionanotechnology This hands-on textbook covers key aspects of bionanotechnology from an engineering perspective. The book delves into a wide variety of topics, including materials science, micro/nano fabrication, general physics, fluid flow, electromagnetics, thermodynamics, molecular biology, immunology, biochemistry, and organic chemistry.Developed from an advanced engineering course taught by its authors, Bionanotechnology: Engineering Concepts and Applications fully explains all of the underlying concepts and shows how that theory can be directly applied in practical applications. Readers will get examples, problem sets, real-world case studies, and engineering design methodologies that illustrate each concept.The book contains complete discussions on microfluidics, lab-on-a-chip devices, organ-on-a-chip devices, quantum dots, DNA/RNA technology, micro/nano fabrication techniques, the modelling/simulation of microsystems, and bionanotechnology-based biosensors, targeted therapies, and drug delivery systems.Combines many different bionanotechnology topics into one resource Based on a course developed and taught by the authors at the University of Alberta Written by recognized experts and experienced educators
