IET Nanobiotechnology (IET Nanobiotechnology)

Following the IET's partnership with Wiley, the updated IET Nanobiotechnology homepage for the current Journal (2013 onwards) can now be found on the Wiley Online Library (WOL). This journal was previously known as IEE Proceedings - Nanobiotechnology 2003-2006. ISSN 1478-1581 Electrical and electronic engineers have a long and illustrious history of contributing new theories and technologies to the biomedical sciences. This includes the cable theory for understanding the transmission of electrical signals in nerve axons and muscle fibres; dielectric techniques that advanced the understanding of cell membrane structures and membrane ion channels; electron and atomic force microscopy for investigating cells at the molecular level. The primary aim of IET Nanobiotechnology is to provide a vital resource for academic and industrial researchers operating in this exciting field of biomedicine and its associated cross-disciplinary activities. We can only achieve this by publishing cutting edge original research and review articles from the international engineering and scientific community. To attract such contributions we will exercise a commitment to our authors by ensuring that their manuscripts receive constructive peer opinions and feedback across interdisciplinary boundaries. IET Nanobiotechnology covers all aspects of research and emerging technologies including, but not limited to: Fundamental theories and concepts applied to biomedical-related devices and methods at the micro- and nano-scale (including methods that employ electrokinetic, electrohydrodynamic, and optical trapping techniques) The synthesis, characterisation, and biomedical applications of biomaterials at micro- and nano-scale (e.g. colloidal particles, polymers, micro- and nano-patterns, micro- and nano-structures) The fabrication, characterisation, and biomedical applications of thin film coating The applications of micro- and nano-scale biomaterials in drug delivery, bioimaging, biosensing, diagnosis, and anticancer and antimicrobial therapy Micromachining and microfabrication tools and techniques applied to the top-down approach to nanobiotechnology Nanomachining and nanofabrication tools and techniques directed towards biomedical and biotechnological applications (e.g. applications of atomic force microscopy, scanning probe microscopy and related tools) Colloid chemistry applied to nanobiotechnology (e.g. cosmetics, suntan lotions, bio-active nanoparticles) Biosynthesis (also known as green synthesis) of nanoparticles – to be considered for publication, research papers in this area must be directed principally towards biomedical research and especially if they encompass in vivo models or proofs of concept, and we welcome papers that are application-orientated or offer new concepts of substantial biomedical importance Techniques for probing cell physiology, cell adhesion sites and cell-cell communication Molecular self-assembly, including concepts of supramolecular chemistry, molecular recognition, and DNA nanotechnology Societal issues such as health and the environment, applications in control of environmental pollution Nanotoxicity and nanobiology; the use of nanomaterials in agriculture, medicine, drug delivery and cosmetics and the potential risks these pose on human health and the environment
