Microbes are often illustrated using single-celled, or unicellular organisms; however some unicellular protists are visible to the naked eye, and some multicellular species are microscopic. The study of microbes is called microbiology. Microbes have an important place in all ecosystems and in most higher-order multicellular organisms. For mankind they are important because they participated in the earth s element cycles, and because of their use in the creation of certain types of food, medicines and biological weapons. An in-depth understanding about the structure, functions and applications these tiny organisms is essentials for all who related to modern life sciences. The present book provides overall information about microbes in a simple style. Besides students and teachers of life sciences, microbiologists, researchers and budding scientists will also find this book of utmost use.

Biosensors

A biosensor is a device for the detection of an analyte that combines a biological component with a physiochemical detector component. A typical biosensor consists of three parts: a sensitive biological element, a transducer in between and a detector element. The most widespread example of a commercial biosensor is the blood glucose biosensor, which uses an enzyme to break blood glucose down. In so doing it transfers an electron to an electrode and this is converted into a measure of blood glucose concentration. The high market demand for such sensors has fuelled development of associated sensor technologies. This book covers recent developments that combine the fields of biotechnology and e...
