Course Content
|
In this course, the bio-sensing and biosensors with their application methods and fields will be reviewed. In the first part of the course, receptors and analytes in biosensors: receptor immobilization, specificity, binding constants, kinetics, diffusion will be focused on. This is followed by electrochemical and optical sensors/transducers, optical methods: fluorescence, luminescence, fiber optics, applications of the mass sensitive sensors. The scope of this course includes diagnostics and other biosensor applications based on sensitivity, selectivity and stability characteristics.
