Beschreibung
The first book to bring together the various topics within a concise and introductory overview with basic theory and practical applications With emphasis on the fundamentals of the biochemical, biophysical, electrical and physiological concepts relevant to bioelectronics, this is the only book available on the topic that is suitable for students. It uses an interdisciplinary approach to present basic theory with practical examples and clinical applications, and delivers the necessary biological knowledge from an electrical engineer's perspective. Each chapter contains a problem section that readers can use for self-assessment, and model answers are given at the end of the book (with references to key scientific publications). It also contains many new developments in the bioelectronics and biosensors fields, such as microfluidic devices and nanotechnology.
