A Guide to Research in Electro Biochemical Technology (Volume 1)

Physics, maths and chemistry have long played a dominant role in electronics, electrical, and other allied engineering sciences. However,
wholesale implementation of life science concepts in electro-chemistry or nano-technology is relatively recent.

“A guide to research in electro-biochemical technology” aims at documenting state-of-the-art research, new developments, and directions for future investigation in the field of bio-physics, electro-biochemistry and nano-biotechnology. The book will guide the electrical, electronics and allied engineering branches to initiate the biology or biotechnology projects. The book also contains basic
information about establishing electro-biochemical laboratory.

This book is an outgrowth of the 10th Workshop of Physical Chemists and Electrochemists , which was held in Mendel University in Brno, Czech Republic. The workshop was dedicated to gain new knowledge of the physical, biophysical chemistry, electrochemistry and materials chemistry, which were enriched by the initial experience from nano-science and nano-materials.

The book is divided into three sections. First section is dedicated for understanding the terminology used in the research articles (This section will help biologist to understand electro-terminology and electrochemists to understand bio-terminology). The next section contains 57 peer reviewed manuscripts on the topics of spectroscopy, electrochemistry, nanobiotechnology, chromat ography, environmental studies and protein & nucleotides. The last section contains information about the list of equipments required for executing electro-biochemical research projects.

We have also included detailed specifications, approximate costs and top manufacturers in the world. The book comes with a full package of media resources which contains basic biology concepts, free links to animations, top manufacturers, local vendors, equipment websites and extra facilities required for efficient execution of electro-bio projects.

Who can use this book?

Electrical, electronics and allied sciences
This book will be helpful for electrical, electronics and allied engineering science departments to initiate biology/biotechnology related
interdisciplinary research projects. The book also gives a brief idea about up gradation of available facilities.

Biology, biotechnology and life sciences
This book will also be helpful for biology, biotechnology and life science departments to initiate electro or nano related interdisciplinary
research.

Researchers
We have included fifty seven research works for the benefit of students and faculties. Small projects or old projects were also included for helping students in developing countries.

How to read this book?
We suggest reading the last section for understanding the basic facilities required to carry out electro-biochemical projects. You can also take help of glossary section or media resources, if you face difficulty in understanding the manuscripts.
