Biosensors are essential to an ever-expanding range of applications. This book addresses the neglected areas of analyte-receptor binding and dissociation kinetics occurring on biosensor surfaces. It also addresses the economic aspects of biosensors and incorporates coverage of biosensor fabrication and nanobiosensors.

Report
"Handbook of biosensors and biosensor kinetics provides an overview of biosensor development and potential applications that is largely focused on the details of analyte-receptor kinetics, specifically fractal analysis. This perspective may be of value to an audience of theoreticians and modelers."--Anal Bioanal Chem 2012 vol.402 pp.1409-1410"[A]n overview of biosensor development and potential applications that is largely focused on the details of analyte-receptor kinetics, specifically fractal analysis.

Any new book on the subject is therefore to be welcomed. This book does fill a small niche in this important and growing area."--Contemporary Physics, August 2011
