Commercial Biosensors and Their Applications: Clinical, Food, and Beyond offers professionals an in-depth look at some of the most significant applications of commercially available biosensor-based instrumentation in the clinical, food quality control, bioprocess monitoring, and bio threat fields. Featuring contributions by an international team of scientists, this book provides readers with an unparalleled opportunity to see how their colleagues around the world are using these powerful tools. This book is an indispensable addition to the reference libraries of biosensor technologists, analytical chemists, clinical chemists, biochemists, physicians, medical doctors, engineers, and clinical biochemists.
The book discusses the need for portable, rapid, and smart biosensing devices and their use as cost-effective, in situ, real-time analytical tools in a variety of fields.
- Devotes several chapters to applications of biosensors to clinical samples, exploring how biosensors are currently used for in-home diabetes monitoring, point-of-care diagnostics, non-invasive sensing, and biomedical research
- Includes a section on food applications covering how biosensors can detect genetically modified organisms, toxins, allergens, hormones, microorganisms, species-specificity, pesticides, insecticides, and related components
- Discusses nanobiosensor and applications, including a chapter on nanotechnological approaches and materials in commercial biosensors
Students and researchers (both early stage and experts) in analytical chemistry and biomedical engineering or from the commercial sector interested in trends in biosensing devices; researchers and chemists in research centers, pharmaceutical companies, and universities working to develop new commercial biosensors

Mustafa Kemal Sezgintürk
Prof. Mustafa Kemal Sezgintürk is a Professor in the Bioengineering Department at Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University. His research interests lie in the area of biochemistry, biosensors, lateral flow assays, cancer biomarkers, electrochemistry, and enzymology. Professor Sezgintürk has more than 180 publications. Four different Lateral Flow Assay systems developed by his team, focused on both novel control line strategies and diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 antigens, have also been patented. Another important achievement is the publication of the first extended and updated book on the field of commercial biosensors, edited by Sezgintürk (Commercial Biosensors and Their Applications: Clinical, Food, and Beyond, Elsevier, 2020). Dr. Sezgintürk has been associate editor-in-chief of the Turkish Journal of Chemistry (SCI-Expanded) for four years. Besides, he is also on the editorial board of these prestigious journals: Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis Open (Elsevier), Biosensors and Bioelectronics:X (Elsevier), International Journal of Environmental Analytical Chemistry (Taylor & Francis), Essential Chem (Taylor & Francis). Professor Sezgintürk also successfully coordinated several scientific projects. In 2016, he won the Award for Outstanding Young Scientist (Turkish Academy of Sciences-GEBİP), a prestigious scientific award.
