Macromolecular Bioelectronics

Nano-Bioelectronics.

Nano-bioelectronics represents a rapidly expanding interdisciplinary field that combines nanomaterials with biology and electronics and, in so doing, offers the potential to overcome existing challenges in bioelectronics. In particular, shrinking electronic transducer dimensions to the nanoscale and making their properties appear more biological can yield significant improvements in the sensiti...

Switchable bioelectronics.

We review the rapidly emerging field of switchable interfaces and its implications for bioelectronics. We seek to piece together early breakthroughs and key developments, and highlight and discuss the future of switchable bioelectronics by focusing on bio-electrochemical processes based on mimicking and controlling biological environments with external stimuli. All these studies strive to answe...

Advances in nanowire bioelectronics.

Semiconductor nanowires represent powerful building blocks for next generation bioelectronics given their attractive properties, including nanometer-scale footprint comparable to subcellular structures and bio-molecules, configurable in nonstandard device geometries readily interfaced with biological systems, high surface-to-volume ratios, fast signal responses, and minimum consumption of energ...

Bioelectronics: Injection and unfolding.

Biosensors & Bioelectronics Update

In this issue we have included a review paper from one of our sister journals, Techovation: “Technological Infrastructure and Regional Economic Development of Biotechnology Firms” by Peter Haug and Philip Ness. The paper describes empirical evidence from 37 commercial biotechnology firms on background attributes, company origins, financial capital resources, market distributions and strategic a...
