Nanobiotechnology of Biomimetic Membranes

The application of nanotechnology principles and methodology to problems in biotechnology is providing an exciting discipline that will generate a revolution of novel applications in several areas. This book focuses on biomimetic membranes, one of the fundamental building blocks of nanobiotechnology. The biomimetic membrane, especially when self-assembled into a lipid bi-layer, provides the basic support structure for many applications in nanobiotechnology.
