Biomolecular Electronics: Bioelectronics and the Electrical Control of Biological Systems and Reactions

Biomolecular Electronics: Bioelectronics and the Electrical Control of Biological Systems and Reactions is a focused scientific monograph on one of the most interesting intersections in modern research: the meeting point between electronic systems and biological matter. Paolo Facci approaches the subject with a clear emphasis on how electrical methods can be used to probe, influence, and in some cases control biomolecules, redox proteins, and biological reactions.

From biomolecules to controllable systems

The book frames biomolecular electronics as more than a search for tiny replacement components for traditional electronics. Instead, it treats biological molecules as functional systems whose behavior can be interfaced with conventional electronic tools. That makes the discussion especially relevant to readers who want to understand the scientific logic behind bioelectronic control, not just the technological buzz around it.

What the book covers

• the basic idea of biomolecular electronics and why proteins and DNA became central to the field
• electrochemistry as a working language for biological interfaces
• the role of water in supporting biological structure and function
• redox metalloproteins and electron transfer
• electrical modulation of protein conformation and activity
• redox control of gene expression and related biological processes

A science-led view of bioelectronic control

Facci’s treatment is especially valuable because it connects theory with application. The book moves through the physical and chemical principles behind biomolecular behavior, then shows how those principles support practical research directions such as electrically gated protein systems, surface-bound reactions, and biologically relevant redox control. The result is a book that reads like a serious scientific roadmap rather than a speculative overview.

Who will appreciate it

This ebook will be most useful to readers in electrochemistry, bioelectronics, nanoscience, molecular biology, nanomedicine, and related research areas. It should also appeal to scientists and engineers looking for a deeper understanding of how biological function can be coupled to electronic methods in a controlled, experimental way.

For researchers following the boundary between biology and electronics, this is a substantial and highly specialized title with real conceptual weight.
