Advances in Polymer/Graphene Nanocomposite for Biosensor Application

Ayesha Kausar
In this article, polymer/graphene nanocomposite has been focused with reference to their application in biosensor. In this regard, various type of biosensors-based on polymer/graphene nanocomposite has been explored. Major categories of biosensors studied include electrochemical biosensor, flexible biosensor, field effect biosensor, and glucose biosensor.

Molecular Chaperone GroEL – toward a Nano Toolkit in Protein Engineering, Production and Pharmacy

Alexey N. Fedorov and Maria S. Yurkova
In this review, we discuss the potential of molecular chaperones belonging to GroEL family as applied to different practical uses. The GroEL, often referred to as chaperonin, plays a fundamental role in protein folding in cells and is essential for the proper folding of a number of proteins. Early on in studying chaperones it has been considered, along with other chaperones, as an attractive tool to assist recombinant protein folding in cells and their refolding in vitro.

Protein Confinement in the Anodic Porous Alumina Microarray

Claudio Larosa, Stefano Fiordoro, Claudio Nicolini and Eugenia Pechkova
Alternative approaches to solve the complexity of protein function in the proteomic field required new arrays in nano-micro-scale dimension. Anodic Porous Alumina (APA), a geometrically ordered inorganic oxide, grown from ultrapure aluminum by anodic oxidation, was used in this work as an ordered array for the confinement of protein molecules by spin-coating technique.

Scope, Aims & Topics

NanoWorld Journal (NWJ) is a quarterly peer-reviewed, open access journal that publishes original research articles, reviews, letters to editor, and technical notes on the solutions through Nanotechnology and Nanosciences to the problems facing the world in the key sectors of energy, environment, space, hardware and cancer in order to achieve significant progress with the involvement of overall society in a dedicated sixth section of the Journal. The scope of the NWJ is centered in the key sectors from which depends human progress and survival, with the aims to enhance worldwide cooperation in Research and Development. With the NWJ we aim to provide the highest coverage to these fields in order to achieve the scope to help to overcome problems too frequently underestimated and growing from energy to environment and natural disasters, from cancer to hardware and space.

NanoWorld Journal Review Process

Corresponding authors submitting the manuscript must explicitly indicate the specific area of expertise among the five ones published on our website under the Editorial Board by each of the two Associate Editors (AE) and if none of the five Associates is appropriate the author must indicate both under which one of six sectors of NWJ (Energy, Environment, Space, Hardware, Cancer, Science and Society as indicated on Scope and Aims) is falling his/her paper and under which one of the remaining Editorial Board Members (EBM) is falling the expertise for his/her submission. If none of the Editorial Board is indicated, the paper will be submitted by the Managing Editor (ME) to the Editor in Chief (EIC) along with a ranking based on four indicators, namely the number of SCI best articles (10 over 10 deciles) as first author and as last author, the total H-index and the total number of Science Citation Index publications regardless the number of deciles, whereby if this last indicator is zero the paper will not be considered for further review.
