Biosensors for the Environmental Monitoring of Aquatic Systems Bioanalytical and Chemical Methods for Endocrine Disruptors / edited by Damià Barceló, Peter-Dietrich Hansen.

There is an increasing need for effective methods of estimating the risks caused by the large number of pollutants released into the environment by human activities. This volume provides an overview of biosensors as a key tool for the environmental monitoring of aquatic systems. Biosensor technology...
