Biosensor design and application

Presents a contemporary discussion of currently available and potential applications of biosensors. Examines diverse approaches to the basic problems of microsizing analytical instrumentation, including the use of intact crustacea antenna, various forms of redox reactions, use of antibody-medicated reactions, and optical- and spectrophotometric-based methods. Describes requirements for using biosensors in experiments conducted in space as well as an interesting approach to the development of more efficient procedures for commercialization of biosensor technologies.
