Traditional biological sensors, based on enzymatic receptors and potentiometric or amperometric transducers are well reviewed and are nowadays even included extensively in many textbooks. The editors of this volume, the 2nd in the new Springer Series on Chemical and Biosensors, …
Plasmonic sensors and their applications
The main technology currently used in diabetic care, monitors blood glucose and involves an invasive “fingerstick” step. However, low patient compliance and non-continuous glucose monitoring imply poor management of diabetes through this technology, which could lead to adverse a…
The adaptation of standard integrated circuit (IC) technology for biosensors in drug discovery pharmacology, neural interface systems, environmental sensors and electrophysiology requires electrodes to be electrochemically stable, biocompatible and affordable. Unfortunately, the…
Chemical and biochemical sensors have a potential for medical and biological applications, such as analyzing or monitoring gastric juice or blood plasma. This book seeks to explain the basic principles and concepts of this technology.
This book introduces the principles and concepts of chemical and biochemical sensors for analyzing medical as well as biological samples. For applications like analyzing or monitoring gastric juice or blood plasma, the potential of sensors is exceptionally large. Focussed on the…
