| dc.description.abstract | Consumption of safe food is very important for human health. The sensitive monitoring of contaminants, such as, chemical compounds, toxins, and pathogens is important for reducing diseases. Conventional methods, such as, chromatography and spectrophotometry for food analysis provides high reliability and very low detection limits but they are expensive, time consuming, and require specialized personnel and therefore they do not allow frequent monitoring of contaminants in food. For this reason, there is an increasing demand for robust, rapid, inexpensive alternative technologies for in situ, real-time monitoring. Owing to their high sensitivity, selectivity, biosensors have attracted attention for monitoring contaminants in food. Biosensors use enzymes, antibodies, nucleic acids, and phages as biorecognition elements. They use optic, electrochemical, and piezoelectric transduction mechanisms for the detection of contaminants. The objective of this chapter is to give a general overview about the possible application of biosensors in the food analysis field. In this chapter, the transduction principles, immobilization techniques, and analytical performances of these biosensors are summarized. © 2017 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. | |
