This book, like the previous five books on biosensors by this author (and one by the co-author), addresses the neglected areas of analyte-receptor binding and dissociation kinetics occurring on biosensor surfaces.
Topics are covered in a comprehensive fashion, with homogeneous presentation for the benefit of the reader. The contributors address the economic aspects of biosensors and incorporate coverage of biosensor fabrication and nanobiosensors, among other topics. The comments, comparison, and discussion presented provides a better perspective of where the field of biosensors is heading.
- Serves as a comprehensive resource on biosensor analysis
- Examines timely topics such as biosensor fabrication and nanobiosensors
- Covers economic aspects and medical applications (e.g., the role of analytes in controlling diabetes)
