Synopsis

Handbook of Biomolecules: Fundamentals, Properties and Applications is a comprehensive resource covering new developments in biomolecules and biomaterials and their industrial applications in the fields of bioengineering, biomedical engineering, biotechnology, biochemistry, and their detection methods using biosensors. This book covers the fundamentals of biomolecules, their roll in living organism, structure, sources, important characteristics, and the industrial applications of these biomaterials. Sections explore amino acids, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, proteins, lipids, metabolites and natural products, then go on to discuss purification techniques and detection methods.

Applications in biomolecular engineering, biochemistry and biomedical engineering, among others, are discussed before concluding with coverage of biomolecules as anticorrosion materials.

• Provides the chronological advancement of biomolecules, their biochemical reaction, and many modern industrial applications in engineering and science
• Serves as a valuable source for researchers interested in the fundamentals, basics and modern applications of biomolecules
• Covers both synthetic and natural biomolecule synthesis and purification processes and their modern applications
• Bridges the gap between the fundamental science of biomolecular chemistry and the relevant technology and industrial applications

From the Back Cover

Handbook of Biomolecules: Fundamentals, Chemistry, Properties and Applications is a comprehensive resource covering the new developments of biomolecules and biomaterials, and their industrial applications in the fields of bioengineering, biomedical engineering, biotechnology, biochemistry and their detection methods using biosensors. This book covers the fundamentals of biomolecules, their roll in living organism, structure, sources, important characteristics, and the industrial applications of these biomaterials. Biomolecules are the fundamental building blocks of living organisms, and range from small molecules to metabolites to large molecules such as proteins and carbohydrates. The book begins with a look at the fundamentals of biomolecules, including amino acids, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, proteins, lipids, metabolites and natural products, then goes on to discuss purification techniques and detection methods. Applications in biomolecular engineering, biochemistry and biomedical engineering, among others, are discussed before concluding with coverage of biomolecules as anticorrosion materials. The book is a valuable resource for chemists, biochemists and biochemical engineers working in academia and industry who need a comprehensive resource covering all aspects and applications of biomolecules.
