Opis: Carbohydrate Nanotechnology

Introducing the emerging field carbohydrate nanostructures, this book will be a unique resource for interested researchers to learn a range of methods of applying the field to their own work. Greater access, as well as greater collaboration, to this new interdisciplinary field is intended for both synthetic carbohydrate chemists and researchers in nanoscience related fields. It covers: * the main types of nanostructures presently under investigation for modification by carbohydrates, including nanoparticles, nanorods, magnetic particles, dendrimers, nanoporous, and surface confined structures * overview and introduction to the field of carbohydrate nanotechnology, and especially its applications to its biological systems * Provides a unique resource for researchers to learn about the techniques used to characterize the physical and biological properties of carbohydrate-modified nanostructuresContributors vii Preface xi 1 Carbohydrate ]Presenting Self ]Assembled Monolayers: Preparation, Analysis, and Applications in Microbiology 1 Aline Debrassi, Willem M. de Vos, Han Zuilhof, and Tom Wennekes 2 Plasmonic Methods for the Study of Carbohydrate Interactions 53 Sabine Szunerits and Rabah Boukherroub 3 Carbohydrate ]Modified Gold Nanoparticles 79 Mikkel B.
