Biosensors for Food Analysis takes account of the diversity of the food industry, and the specifications which biosensors would have to meet in real applications.
It brings food researchers up to date on currently available technology in this growing field, and will be of interest to biochemists, microbiologists and food scientists in research associations and academic institutions.
