Abstract

SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.

Abstract

This review is focused on current approaches emerging at the intersection of hybrid nanomaterials research and biotechnology. This interdisciplinary field of chemistry and biology is also associated with physical and chemical properties of organic and inorganic nanoparticles, as well as to DNA, proteins and polysaccharide studies.
