Riassunto

Chemically Modified Nanopores and Nanochannels is devoted to chemically modified nanopores and nanochannels, and covers the fundamentals of transport in chemically modified systems, an account of the different preparation and characterization techniques of chemically modified nanopores, their applications, and case studies.

The book is designed for materials and biomaterials scientists, biomedical engineers, chemists, and chemical engineers who are interested in designing and utilizing processes to synthesize, modify, characterize, use, and model nanopores. The strong chemical focus of the book differentiates it from other books published on nanopores, which traditionally focus either on physics, biophysics, and nanofabrication (solid-state nanopores) or biophysics and biology (biological ion channels and pores).

• Explains how the chemical modification of nanopores and nanochannels can be used in filtration, membranes, and sensing
• Provides advanced coverage of novel synthetic applications
• Focuses on the latest developments in nanopore and nanochannel engineering
• Presents an account of the different preparation and characterization techniques of chemically modified nanopores, their applications, and case studies

Informazioni sugli autori

Mario Tagliazucchi received his degree in Chemistry from the University of Buenos Aires (Argentina) in 2004 and obtained his PhD in Chemistry from the same University in 2009 under the supervision of Prof. Ernesto J. Calvo. From 2010 to 2015, he was a postdoctoral fellow at the Non-equilibrium Research Center at Northwestern University (USA), where he performed theoretical studies in the area of chemical modified nanopores and nanochannels working with Professors Igal Szleifer and Emily Weiss. Since 2015, he is a Staff Scientist of CONICET (Science and Technology Council of Argentina). He has been awarded with CONICET-FUDETEC and Fulbright fellowships. He has published approximately 45 papers in related to theoretical and experimental studies in soft materials.

Prof. Igal Szleifer is Christina Enroth-Cugell Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Northwestern University, USA. He also holds professorships in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering and Professor of Chemical and Biological Engineering at the same institution. His research is focused research is aimed at the fundamental understanding of the properties of complex molecular systems that encompass problems at the interface between medicine, biology, chemistry, physics and materials science. His research group concentrates on the development and application of molecular theoretical approaches to study biomaterials, drug delivery systems, models for cell membranes and biological processes.

Tagline: An in-depth look at the characteterization and techniques of chemically modified nanopores and nanochannels, with a look towards commercial applciations.

• Explains how the chemical modification of nanopores and nanochannels can be used in filtration, membranes and sensing.
• Provides advanced coverage of novel synthetic applications.
• Focuses on the latest developments in nanopore and nanochannel engineering

The field of nanopores and nanochannels has grown in recent years to become a major area in modern nanotechnology. Commercially viable applications of these nanofluidic elements in sensing and filtration are now a reality, and novel uses in energy conversion, biomedicine and catalysis are under investigation. The area of chemically modified nanopores will continue to grow in the coming years, driven by the promise of improved applications and fuelled by the availability of tools for surface modification, which chemists originally developed for planar surfaces.

This book is devoted to chemically modified nanopores and nanochannels, and covers the fundamentals of transport in chemically modified systems; an account of the different preparation and characterization techniques of chemically modified nanopores; applications and case studies.

It is designed for materials and biomaterials scientists, biomedical engineers, chemists, and chemical engineers, who are interested in designing and utilizing processes to synthesize, modify, characterize, use and model nanopores. The strong chemical focus of the book differentiates it from other books published on nanopores, which traditionally focus either on physics, biophysics and nanofabrication (solid-state nanopores) or biophysics and biology (biological ion channels and pores).
