Description for Bionanocomposites: Integrating Biological Processes for Bioinspired Nanotechnologies
Hardback. Beginning with a general overview of nanocomposites, Bionanocomposites: Integrating Biological Processes for Bio-inspired Nanotechnologies details the systems available in nature (nucleic acids, proteins, carbohydrates, lipids) that can be integrated within suitable inorganic matrices for specific applications. Editor(s): Aime, Carole; Coradin, Thibaud. Num Pages: 320 pages. BIC Classification: TBN; TGM. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Weight in Grams: 666.
Beginning with a general overview of nanocomposites, Bionanocomposites: Integrating Biological Processes for Bio-inspired Nanotechnologies details the systems available in nature (nucleic acids, proteins, carbohydrates, lipids) that can be integrated within suitable inorganic matrices for specific applications. Describing the relationship between architecture, hierarchy and function, this book aims at pointing out how bio-systems can be key components of nanocomposites. The text then reviews the design principles, structures, functions and applications of bionanocomposites. It also includes a section presenting related technical methods to help readers identify and understand the most widely used analytical tools such as mass spectrometry, calorimetry, and impedance spectroscopy, among others.

About Carole Aim
CAROLE AIMÉ is a CNRS researcher working in Thibaud Coradin's group in the Laboratoire de Chimie de la Matière Condensée de Paris. After she received a Ph.D. working on self-assembling amphiphilic systems in Reiko Oda's group in Bordeaux University-France, she joined Pr. Nobuo Kimizuka's group in Kyushu University-Japan, where she designed functional coordination nanoparticles from nucleotides and lanthanide ions. She is now developing bio-inspired systems made up of inorganic nanoparticles and biopolymers. THIBAUD CORADIN has been Directeur de Recherche at the CNRS since 2007. He is currently leading the Materials and Biology group in the Laboratoire de Chimie de la Matière Condensée de Paris (UPMC-Paris 06). His research topics include biomineralization, bionanocomposites, biomaterials, bioencapsulation and green materials chemistry. He has co-authored over 170 publications and 17 book chapters and he is a member of the Advisory Editorial Board of Scientific Reports, Current Medicinal Chemistry and Silicon.
