	Global nanosensor market to reach $17.2 billion by 2012 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Nanosensor arrays are already under development by firms such as Dow Corning, Samsung, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, IBM, Motorola, and Agilent as well as by startups such as Nanomix and Ambri.
		Nanosensors will better detect the onset of diseases such as cancer or heart disease, and NanoMarkets expects the market for biomedical nanosensors to reach approximately $800 million in 2008 and $1.2 billion in 2012.
		Nanosensors for military and homeland defense applications, where they will be used to detect the presence of biotoxins (such as anthrax and smallpox) or of radioactive materials, are projected to reach $827 million in 2008 and grow to $3.9 billion in 2012.

	Detection of a Biomarker for Alzheimer's Disease from Synthetic and Clinical Samples Using a Nanoscale Optical Biosensor
		The signal transduction mechanism of the LSPR nanosensor is based on its sensitivity to local refractive index changes near the surfaces of substrate-confined, size- and shape-controlled, silver and gold nanoparticles.
		In addition, the LSPR nanosensor is demonstrated to be sufficiently sensitive for the detection of ultralow concentrations of ADDLs in biological samples.
		These preliminary results indicate that LSPR nanosensor technology is useful as a screening method of human samples for disease diagnosis as well as a more general approach to a mechanistic understanding of diseases and drug target interactions.

	Nanotech News - Fiber-Optic Nanosensor Monitors Single Cells
		Writing in the journal Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, Dinh and graduate student Paul Kasili, define a fiber optic nanoscale as a nanometer-scale measurement device that consists of a biologically or chemically sensitive layer, such as an immobilized receptor, antibody, or nucleic acid, that is covalently attached to an optical transducer.
		In the case of a receptor-based nanosensor, an interaction between the immobilized receptor and its substrate — the molecule it binds to — produces a perturbation that the optical transducer converts to an electrical signal via laser-induced fluorescence.
		Several types of biological nanosensors for monitoring apoptosis are discussed in detail, including one device that measures activation of capsase-9, one of the earliest events in apoptosis.

	Thoughts on the Economics of Nanosensors
		NanoMarkets has just completed an in-depth analysis and forecast of the global nanosensors market; a market that we see growing from a modest $185 million or so in 2005, to $2.7 billion in 2008 and reaching $17.2 billion by 2012.
		These large aggregate numbers may appear impressive but they hide the fact that the nanosensor market will be highly fragmented, consisting of many market niches, each with its own needs, developmental timeframe and complexity.
		In this white paper we outline an approach to pinpointing where the market opportunities are for a given set of investment criteria and provide forecasts of the market.
