Dr Florinel-Gabriel BANICA is Associate Professor at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Dept of Chemistry. Prior to this he was at the Technical University of Bucharest, Romania. Florin’s research is focused on bioelectrochemistry, and functionalized materials for chemical sensor applications. He teaches undergraduate courses on analytical chemistry, instrumental analysis, electroanalytical chemistry and physical chemistry, and graduate courses on atomic spectrometry and chemical sensors and biosensors (on which this book is based).
Summary In conclusion it can be stated that thisbook is very suitable for students and a sound didactic means oflearning the basics of chemo and biosensors ... The organizationof the content and the quantity of material presented are highlysuitable for undergraduate and graduate students and for newcomersto this field; it can, therefore, be recommended for those wishingto gain both a first insight into, and a comprehensive overview of,this still growing topic.
