Description
Explores bioconjugate properties and applications ofpolymers, dendrimers, lipids, nanoparticles, and nanotubes Bioconjugation has enabled breakthroughs across many areas ofindustry and biomedicine. With its emphasis on synthesis,properties and applications, this book enables readers tounderstand the connection between chemistry and the biologicalapplication of bioconjugated materials. Its detailed descriptionsof methods make it possible for researchers to fabricate and takefull advantage of bioconjugates for a broad range of applications.Moreover, the book sets the foundation for the development of newapplications, including assays, imaging, biosensors, drug delivery,and diagnostics. Chemistry of Bioconjugates features contributions from aninternational team of leading experts and pioneers in the field.These contributions reflect the authors’ firsthand laboratoryexperience as well as a thorough review of the current literature.The book’s six sections examine: General methods of bioconjugation Polymer bioconjugates Organic nanoparticle-based bioconjugates Inorganic nanomaterial bioconjugates, including metals andmetal oxides Cell-based, hydrogel/microgel, and glyco-bioconjugates Characterization, physico-(bio)chemical properties, andapplications of bioconjugates This comprehensive exploration of bioconjugates includesdiscussions of polymers, dendrimers, lipids, nanoparticles, andnanotubes. References at the end of each chapter serve as a gatewayto the most important original research findings and reviews in thefield. By drawing together and analyzing all the latest chemicalmethods and research findings on the physico-chemical andbiochemical properties of bioconjugates, Chemistry ofBioconjugates sheds new light on the significance and potentialof bioconjugation. The book is recommended for organic and polymerchemists, biochemists, biomaterial scientists, carbohydratechemists, biophysicists, bioengineers, and drug and gene deliveryscientists.
