We have developed a new approach to the production of nanomaterials using a g roup of u niform m aterials b ased on o rganic s alts (GUMBOS).  We believe that our approach represents a conceptual shift for production of nanomaterials such that nanoGUMBOS are uniformly designed and assembled for specific uses, rather than adapted for uses as is the case for many nanomaterials. This is because our approach to nanomaterial development allows for easy simultaneous incorporation of a variety of uniform properties which can be exploited for selected bioanalytical measurements and applications. This talk will focus on discussions of these new kinds of designer nanomaterials, provide examples of biochemical applications, and will focus on the advantages of using nanoGUMBOS relative to other nanomaterials.  Particular emphasis will be placed on the biological applications of these new materials.
