Electrochemical Sensing: Carcinogens in Beverages
This book describes a robust, low-cost electrochemical sensing system that is able to detect hormones and phthalates – the most ubiquitous endocrine disruptor compounds – in beverages and is sufficiently flexible to be readily coupled with any existing ch

Preface
The research work required to do a substantial addition to the existing knowledge includes, but not limited to the literature surveys in electrochemical spectroscopy and allied fields, design and developments, simulations and fabrications, experimentation and analyses, measurements and hypothesis, functionalization and immobilization, selectivity and sensitivity, detailed mathematical and statistical analyses, and result validations. The presented research work has successfully been applied to develop an exciting transducer that could not only selectively detect its target but is also capable enough to quantify harmful synthetic organic impurities in our foodstuff. This research work has not only provided a real-time tool to perform week-long chemical and biochemical assays in minutes, but had also played its part as a source for community
