This
book describes a robust, low-cost electrochemical sensing system that is able to
detect hormones and phthalates – the most ubiquitous endocrine disruptor
compounds – in beverages and is sufficiently flexible to be readily coupled
with any existing chemical or biochemical sensing system. A novel type of silicon substrate-based smart interdigital
transducer, developed using
MEMS semiconductor fabrication technology, is employed in conjunction with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy to allow real-time detection and
analysis. Furthermore, the
presented interdigital capacitive sensor design offers a sufficient penetration
depth of the fringing electric field to permit bulk sample testing. The authors
address all aspects of the development of the system and fully explain its benefits.
The book will be of wide interest to engineers, scientists, and researchers
working in the fields of physical electrochemistry and biochemistry at the
undergraduate, postgraduate, and research levels. It will also be highly relevant
for practitioners and researchers involved in the development of electromagnetic
sensors.
