Nanotechnology brings new possibilities for the development of sensors, biosensors, and novel electrochemical bioassays. Nanoscale materials have been extensively used in a wide variety of configurations - as electrode surfaces to promote electrochemical reaction, as "wires" to enzymes connecting their redox centers to electrode surface, as nanobarcodes for biomolecules, or as tags to amplify the signal of a biorecognition event.

Nanomaterial-based electrochemical sensors have been used in many areas, including cancer diagnostics and the detection of infectious organisms. This book reviews important achievements in the field of nanomaterial-based electrochemical sensors and biosensors.

Reviews

"Every chapter provides an introduction to help readers to understand particular and important concepts and concludes with a summary of future perspectives. Overall, the book offers a timely overview of this rapidly developing interdisciplinary field. It is highly recommended to both novices and experts to be acquainted with the important achievements in the field and the future of electrochemical detection methods."
