Overview
- Provides over 14 extensive, hands-on labs at the end of each chapter, many of which are new to the second edition, delivering hands-on guidance and visual demonstration of biosensor applications
- Takes a step-by-step approach toward the end result of building an antibody-based immunosensor from scratch
- Includes new material on glucose sensors and microcontrollers for biosensors as well as new lab exercises such as building an op-amp circuit for commercial glucose strips, quantifying lateral flow assays (pregnancy tests) with a smartphone, and building a pulse oximeter (LED+PD circuit)
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

About this book
New to this second edition are sections on op-amp filters, pulse oximetry, meat quality monitoring, advanced fluorescent dyes, autofluorescence, various fluorescence detection methods, fluoride ion-selective electrode, advanced glucose sensing methods including continuous glucose monitoring, paper-based lab-on-a-chip, etc. A new chapter on nano-biosensors and an appendix on microcontrollers make this textbook ideal for undergraduate engineering students studying biosensors. It can also serve as a hands-on guide for scientists and engineers working in the sensor or biosensor industries.

About the author
Jeong-Yeol Yoon received his B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in Chemical Engineering from Yonsei University, Seoul (South Korea) in 1992, 1994, and 1999 respectively, under the guidance of Dr. Woo-Sik Kim, in collaboration with Dr. Jung-Hyun Kim, where he worked primarily on polymer colloids. He received his second Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) in 2004, working on lab-on-a-chip and biomaterials, under the guidance of Dr. Robin L. Garrell. He joined the Agricultural & Biosystems Engineering faculty in August 2004 and holds joint appointment in the Department of Biomedical Engineering and BIO5 Institute at the University of Arizona. Dr. Yoon is currently Professor and is directing the Biosensors Lab (http://biosensors.abe.arizona.edu). He is a member of the Institute of Biological Engineering (IBE), American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE), and SPIE—The International Society for Optics and Photonics. Hewas an elected president of IBE (http://www.ibe.org) for the 2015 calendar year. Dr. Yoon currently serves as one of two Editor-in-Chief’s for Journal of Biological Engineering (http://www.jbioleng.org), the official journal of IBE, published by BioMed Central. He also serves (or had served) as Associate Editor and Editorial Board Members for numerous journals, including Scientific Reports, Journal of Biological Engineering, Biological Engineering Transactions, and Transactions of the ASABE.
