In-Depth Information
different gases that have been detected by the different biosensors and are available in the
literature. The examples analyzed and presented here were selected at random. A more
detailed study of the detection of different gases available in the literature by the different
biosensors should help provide a better perspective of the different gases that may be
detected by the different biosensors available at present.
Novel biosensor techniques are continuously being developed for the detection of even “con-
ventional” gases such as ammonia. Hopefully, these novel biosensor techniques should help
detect conventional and other gases at lower and lower detection levels, besides becoming
more and more sensitive, robust, and reliable detection techniques.
