Titel
Biosensors for the detection of heavy metal ions and fecal contaminations
Abstract
Sensors for the detection of heavy metal ions in waste water and fecal coliforms in surface water are being developped. Heavy metal complexing peptides/proteins and antibodies against surface antigens of fecal coliforms are used as the respective biological components. As transducers, proton-sensitive field- effect transistors (ISFETs), mass-sensitive piezoelectric crystals and integrated grating couplers are investigated.
