Synthetic receptors recognition combinatorial

Thus, synthetic combinatorial receptor libraries of high diversity are a prerequisite for further progress in the field of chemosensors. As yet, there are no specific receptors available for most of the analytes, but this can be overcome by the use of sensor arrays. A mathematical analysis by pattern recognition can lead to a successful analysis of compound mixtures which are exposed to an array of sensors with different selectivities ( bio-electronic nose ) [13,14].
