Preface
The field of chemical and biological sensing is immense. It is nearly the whole world of natural and synthetic compounds that have to be analyzed in a broad variety of conditions and for a broad variety of purposes. In the human body, we need to detect and quantify virtually all the genes (genomics) and the products of these genes (proteomics). We need to know how they interact performing their functions (interactomics). In our surrounding there is a need to analyze a huge number of compounds including millions of newly synthesized products. Among them, we have to select potentially useful compounds (e.g. drugs) and discriminate those that are inefficient and harmful. No less important is to control agricultural production and food processing. There is also a practical necessity to provide control in industrial product technologies, especially in those that produce pollution. Permanent monitoring is needed to maintain safety of our environment. Protection from harmful micr
