Description: <p><i>Introduction to Biosensors: From Electric Circuits to Immunosensors</i> discusses underlying circuitry of sensors for biomedical and biological engineers as well as biomedical sensing modalities for electrical engineers while providing an applications-based approach to the study of biosensors with over 13 extensive, hands-on labs. The material is presented using a building-block approach, beginning with the fundamentals of sensor design and temperature sensors and ending with more complicated biosensors. This book also:</p><p>Provides electrical engineers with the specific knowledge they need to understand biological sensing modalities</p><p>Provides biomedical engineers with a solid background in circuits and systems</p><p>Includes complete coverage of temperature sensors, electrochemical sensors, DNA and immunosensors, piezoelectric sensors and immunosensing in a micofluidic device</p><p><i>Introduction to Biosensors: From Electric Circuits to Immunosensors</i> aims to provide an interdisciplinary approach to biosensors that will be appreciated by biomedical, biological, and electrical engineers.</p>
