9780470710678: Chemical Sensors and Biosensors: Fundamentals and Applications

Synopsis

This is a modern introductory book on sensors, combining underlying theory with bang up to date topics such as nanotechnology. The text is suitable for graduate students and research scientists with little background in analytical chemistry. It is user-friendly, with an accessible theoretical approach of the basic principles, and references for further reading. The book covers up-to-date advances in the sensor field, e.g. nanotechnology and quantum dots. It includes calculation exercises and solutions, and the  accompanying website contains Powerpoint slides.

About the Author

Dr Florinel-Gabriel BANICA is Associate Professor at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Dept of Chemistry. Prior to this he was at the Technical University of Bucharest, Romania. Florin’s research is focused on bioelectrochemistry, and functionalized materials for chemical sensor applications. He teaches undergraduate courses on analytical chemistry, instrumental analysis, electroanalytical chemistry and physical chemistry, and graduate courses on atomic spectrometry and chemical sensors and biosensors (on which this book is based).

From the Back Cover

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.
