About this book

Chemical sensors are in high demand for applications as varied as water pollution detection, medical diagnostics, and battlefield air analysis. Designing the next generation of sensors requires an interdisciplinary approach. The book provides a critical analysis of new opportunities in sensor materials research that have been opened up with the use of combinatorial and high-throughput technologies, with emphasis on experimental techniques. For a view of component selection with a more computational perspective, readers may refer to the complementary volume of Integrated Analytical Systems edited by M. Ryan et al., entitled “Computational Methods for Sensor Material Selection”.

Reviews

From the reviews:

"The present book gives a wide-ranging overview of the applications of combinatorial synthesis to the field of sensor development. … The chapters are organized into seven sections based on techniques for constructing the main sensors … . In summary, this volume offers a carefully picked collection of relevant examples from the field of synthesis of combinatorial sensors. A reader interested in this field and already conversant in the science of sensors will find it a thought-provoking starting point for more in-depth literature research." (Marco Bonizzoni and Eric V. Anslyn, Journal of the American Chemistry Society, Vol. 131 (40), 2009)
