Specific binding sites of biological origin define a special class of chemical sensors biosensors. Due to their exceptionally high selectivity, these bioligands have been the subject of intense interest among sensor scientists and engineers. They are classified in Table 2.2. 

Due to high biocompability and large surface are of cobalt oxide nanoparticles it can be used for immobilization of other biomolecules. Flavin adenine FAD is a flavoprotein coenzyme that plays an important biological role in many oxidoreductase processes and biochemical reactions. The immobilized FAD onto different electrode surfaces provides a basis for fabrication of sensors, biosensors, enzymatic reactors and biomedical devices. The electrocatalytic oxidation of NADH on the surface of graphite electrode modified with immobilization of FAD was investigated [276], Recently we used cyclic voltammetry as simple technique for cobalt-oxide nanoparticles formation and immobilization flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) [277], Repeated cyclic voltammograms of GC/ CoOx nanoparticles modified electrode in buffer solution containing FAD is shown in Fig.37A. 

Abstract Conductive polymers are established materials for development of chemical and biological sensors. Properties of these polymers are influenced by a number of different physical and chemical factors. Application of combinatorial and high-throughput techniques to development and optimization of chemo and biosensors is reviewed. Methods for addressable synthesis of conductive polymers and protocols for comprehensive description of chemosensitive properties are discussed. 

Chemical and biological sensors (the latter are also called biosensors) are more complex extensions of physical sensors. In many cases, the transducer technologies developed and commercialized for physical sensors are the basis for chemical sensors and biosensors. As used throughout this text, chemical sensors and biosensors are defined as measurement devices which utilize chemical...

Recent advances in the design and fabrication of chemical and biological sensors for toxicity evaluation are summarized in Chapter 5. Chapter 6 discusses the applications of electronic noses and tongues in areas such as food, beverage, environmental, clinical, and pharmaceutical applications. Chapter 7 overviews the applications of sensors in food and environmental analysis. Chapter 8 focuses on the medical diagnosis, with particular emphasis on in-vivo measurement where either body or breath odor are collected and analyzed. Chapter 9 outlines the DNA biosensors that hold great promise for the task of environmental control and monitoring.
