Overview
Biological sensing systems have inspired a new generation of devices capable of detecting and responding to environmental and physiological signals. These biosensors bridge living systems and technology, offering breakthroughs in diagnostics and monitoring. Biosensors and Living Systems explores the principles of biosensor design, detection mechanisms, and biorecognition elements. The book discusses enzymatic, microbial, and immunological biosensors used in healthcare, food safety, and environmental monitoring. It also highlights advances in nanotechnology and bioelectronics. Combining biological insight with engineering innovation, it provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of how biosensing technology enhances modern science and medicine.
Author Bio
Lindsay Patterson is an ecologist, wildlife researcher, and copy editor passionate about animals, conservation, and the power of the written, and the spoken word. She has an undergraduate degree in English and Philosophy studies, an honors degree in Environmental Sciences, and a doctorate in Ecology, which has deepened her understanding of working hard for what you love. Her passion for wildlife research began with the Chacma baboons of South Africa's Table Mountain National Park and led her to the Cederberg Mountain's elusive Cape leopards, Madagascar's unique diversity of lemurs, frogs, and snakes, and KwaZulu-Natal's precocious vervet monkeys. In her 10-year career as a natural history researcher, she worked on over 200 nature documentaries for award-winning production houses, including Love Nature, National Geographic, Discovery, and Smithsonian. In her downtime, she loves camping in remote spaces and is an avid reader of everything.
