Descripción

Nanotechnology-Based Sensing Platforms for Illicit Drugs reviews different types of sensors that detect illicit drugs, with a special focus on the advantages provided by incorporating nanotechnology in their design. The book starts with the fundamentals, classification, progress, the current state of research on nanotechnology-based sensors, and an overview of materials commonly used. Subsequent chapters focus on the chemical interactive behaviors of drugs and their detection methods. It includes a thorough discussion on the design, fabrication, and characterization of sensors for illicit drug detection. Final sections provide an overall outlook on recent technological advances in drug detection devices and future research.

This book is a valuable resource for researchers, scientists, and professionals interested in biosensors, nanotechnology, and their applications in illicit drug detection.
