Single-Molecule Tools for Bioanalysis

In the last three decades, the fast development of single-molecule  techniques has revolutionized the way we observe and understand  biological processes. Some of these techniques have been further adapted  as tools for bioanalysis. This book summarizes and details the  frontiers of the development of these tools as well as their  applications. The contributors are young and established researchers in  their respective fields. The main content originates from the lecture  notes of a chemistry graduate course taught by the book editor at  Nanjing University. This book is suitable to be used as a textbook for a  high-level undergraduate or an entry-level graduate course. The  systematically written content provides a thorough illustration of the  mechanisms of each methodology presented.
