Abstract:
All living organisms are connected to the environment by some kind of chemical recognition and signal generation system. For instance, we make use of our senses: olfaction, sight, touch, taste and hearing to recognize either molecules (olfaction and taste) or physical stimuli (photons, sound waves, pressure, etc.). Likewise, each individual cell in unicellular or multicellular organisms senses stimuli from its surrounding environment (extracellular fluids, other cells and so on) through receptors on the cell surface. Humans have been able to copy these functions in machines, which can be connected to electronic circuits and computers to report on the quality of the outside world. In this chapter, the mechanisms that Nature has developed in living systems will be first addressed and afterwards the "biosensing" machines that mimic those functions will be addressed in order to analyze a variety of different types of sample (environment, clinic, food, industrial, etc.). © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2008.
