Sensors: A Comprehensive Survey, Chemical and Biochemical Sensors part II volume 3

Sensors: A Comprehensive Survey is the first authoritative and time-saving reference series to offer a comprehensive overview of all aspects of research, design, development, and application. Each volume is a self contained, topic-specific handbook that both specialists and generalists in the field will find extremely useful. The series contains the most up-to-date resources available to the sensor community. It provides detailed coverage of numerous "hot" topics. Compares various types of sensors with respect to their applications. An extensive bibliography accompanies each article. Thorough index and cross-references permit fast information search for the reader. 'Sensors' is the first self-contained series to deal with the whole area of sensors. It describes general aspects, technical and physical fundamentals, construction, function, applications and developments of the various types of sensors. This is the second of two volumes focusing on chemical and biochemical sensors. It includes a detailed description of biosensors which often make use of transducer properties of the basic sensors and usually have additional biological components. This volume provides a unique overview of the applications, the possibilities and limitations of sensors in com A collection of articles on chemical and biochemical sensors covering the whole range of thermal sensors. The work is aimed at environmental and public health agencies, and the pharmaceutical and biotechnological industries.
