In this contribution we describe the application of Ink-Jet printing and Stencil Lithography in bionanotechnology. Both techniques are alternative patterning methods that can be used for the fabrication of biocompatible microand nanostructures out of the costly and restricted clean room environment. The applications presented in this contribution are 1) the cell patterning using Au dot arrays d...

Molecular modeling is advocated here as a key methodology for research and development in bionanotechnology. Molecular modeling provides nanoscale images at atomic and even electronic resolution, predicts the nanoscale interaction of unfamiliar combinations of biological and inorganic materials, and evaluates strategies for redesigning biopolymers for nanotechnological uses. The methodology is ...

That a journal for the philosophy of chemistry such as Hyle devotes several issues to nanotechnology does not mean that nanotechnology would overtake chemistry, as Eric K Drexler boldly predicted when he claimed that molecular manufacture would relegate current chemical technologies in the prehistory of mankind, along with chipping flint (Drexler 1986, p. 4). Rather nanotechnology is only one p...
