Rege K., Medintz I.L. (Eds.) Methods in Bioengineering: Nanoscale Bioengineering and Nanomedicine

Artech House, 2009. — 365 p.Filling a critical gap in the current literature, this new resource presents practical, step-by-step methods to help you synthesize, characterize, biofunctionalize and apply the nanomaterial that is most suitable for handling a given nanoscale bioengineering problem. Written and presented by leading scientists and engineers in their respective fields, the authors offer a clear and detailed understanding of how to carry out:
Nanoparticle functionalization with biomolecules, including enzymes;
Nanoparticle analysis and characterization;
In vitro evaluation of nanoparticles using different cell lines;
In vitro evaluation of nanoparticles as therapeutics and imaging agents.
