"State of the Art in Biosensors: General Aspects" ed. by Toonika Rinken

The present book is focused on the general aspects of state of the art in biosensor technologies. It is composed of 13 chapters written by 44 authors and is divided into three sections, which correspond to the “three whales” of bio-sensing and match to the three parts of the word BIO-SEN-SOR. The division of the chapters into sections is based on the major focus of these studies and is not limiting the topics handled – valuable results and new ideas of different aspects of biosensor technology are found in all papers.

The first section of the book is focused on the principles and techniques of bio-selective recognition of different compounds and the immobilization of bio-selective materials; the second on the transduction methods of the signals of bio-recognition reactions and the third on the signal analysis and calibration of biosensors or how to get the most out of collected information.
