The diversity of chemical and biological sensors in both type and application appeals to a broad group of scientists and engineers with interests ranging from basic sensor research and development to the application of sensors in the field and on processing lines. To date, no text has attempted to address the needs of this broad audience. The Handbook of Chemical and Biological Sensors is aimed at all scientists and engineers who are interested in or are developing these sensors. The scope of the book includes both chemical and biological sensors, as well as the basic technologies associated with physical sensors which form the basis for them. The text is divided into two major parts, the first dealing with basic sensor technologies and the second with sensor applications. This approach allows the reader to first review the scientific basis for sensor transducers, surfaces, and signal output, these basic technologies are then extended to actual, functional sensors, many of them commercial products. The Handbook, then, is intended to be both a teaching and a reference tool for those interested in developing and using chemical and biological sensors.
