Description

Electrochemistry for Bioanalysis provides a comprehensive understanding of the benefits and challenges of the application of electrochemical and electroanalytical techniques for measurement in biological samples. The book presents detailed information on measurement in a host of various biological samples from single cells, tissues and in vivo. Sections cover real insights surrounding key experimental design and measurement within multiple complex biological environments. Finally, users will find discussions on emerging topics such as electrogenerated chemiluminescence and the use of additive manufacturing for biosensor fabrication. Continuous learning reinforcement throughout the book, including problems for self-assessment, make this an ideal resource.

Key features

  • Balances the fundamentals of electrochemical and neurochemical methods with current advances in the field of bioanalysis
  • Includes self-assessment scenarios on experimental design and validation to teach readers key factors and considerations in measurement
  • Highlights applications (such as sensors and biosensors) and key points within each chapter

Readership

Students (graduate level and above) in primary analytical chemistry, as well as physical chemistry and biochemistry; early-career researchers studying bioanalysis. Undergraduate and post-graduate chemistry courses which have elective modules in bioanalytical chemistry
