Luminescence Applied in Sensor Science

From the reviews:

"The book is a cornucopia of techniques and ideas from a variety of areas. It reads well and would make a stimulating source for graduate students to get an overview of different areas and provide them with a wealth of ideas to apply to different fields of research. Senior scientists will find it valuable for keeping up with the latest work in a number of disciplines. I found much of it an enjoyable and stimulating reading. ... It is a useful addition to my library." (James N. Demas, Journal of the American Chemical Society, Vol. 133, November, 2011)

"Contributions provide a survey of the recent literature, examples and guidelines for the design of luminescent sensors, and trends for future developments. ... Luminescence applied in sensor science covers contemporary topics in the field of luminescent sensors applied to the detection of ions, small molecules, and biopolymers. It is very informative, combining an overview of recent developments, experimental information, and future trends on each topic. ... For those working in, or seeking to enter this field, the book is a very valuable and timely asset." (Dario M. Bassani, Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, Vol. 402, 2012)
