Summary: This book describes the chemistries involved in bioconjugation followed by an extensive review of all types of bioconjugates (polymers, dendrimers, nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes) reported in the literature for different bio-related applications. A section is devoted to the physico-chemical and biochemical properties of bioconjugates and implications in their uses. Finally, the book also provides a comprehensive account about the significance of bioconjugation - coverage that is lacking in many of the current resources available.
