Key features include:
* Self-assessment questions and exercises
* Chapters start with essential principles, then go on to address
more advanced topics
* More than 1300 references to direct the reader to key
literature and further reading
* Highly illustrated with 450 figures, including chemical
structures and reactions, functioning principles, constructive
details and response characteristics
Chemical sensors are self-contained analytical devices that
provide real-time information on chemical composition. A chemical
sensor integrates two distinct functions: recognition and
transduction. Such devices are widely used for a variety of
applications, including clinical analysis, environment monitoring
and monitoring of industrial processes. This text provides an
up-to-date survey of chemical sensor science and technology, with a
good balance between classical aspects and contemporary trends.
Topics covered include:
* Structure and properties of recognition materials and reagents,
including synthetic, biological and biomimetic materials,
microorganisms and whole-cells
* Physicochemical basis of various transduction methods
(electrical, thermal, electrochemical, optical, mechanical and
acoustic wave-based)
* Auxiliary materials used e.g. synthetic and natural polymers,
inorganic materials, semiconductors, carbon and metallic
materials
* properties and applications of advanced materials (particularly
nanomaterials) in the production of chemical sensors and
biosensors
* Advanced manufacturing methods
* Sensors obtained by combining particular transduction and
recognition methods
* Mathematical modeling of chemical sensor processes
Suitable as a textbook for graduate and final year undergraduate
students, and also for researchers in chemistry, biology, physics,
physiology, pharmacology and electronic engineering, this bookis
valuable to anyone interested in the field of chemical sensors and
biosensors.
