Electrochemical Sensors in Bioanalysis

316 pages, Illustrated  ISBN 0824706625      £97.00

This book covers recent advances in methods and materials for the construction, validation, analysis, and design of electrochemical sensors for bioanalytical, clinical, and pharmaceutical applications. It emphasises the latest classes of enantioselective electrochemical sensors as well as electrochemical sensors for in vivo and in vitro diagnosis, for DNA assay and HIV detection as well as for use as detectors in flow systems. It covers current techniques for the assay of biological fluids and pharmaceutical compounds and will thus be of interest to analytical, electroanalytical, pharmaceutical, food, organic, medicinal, and environmental chemists and biochemists as well as advanced undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
