Preface
Over the years, the number of academic publications on the development of chemical sensors has increased dramatically from 76 articles in 1983 to 7461 articles in 2015 (according to a Scopus Web search using the phrase “chemical sensor”). Additionally, the commercial market is increasing its search for new chemical sensors in order to monitor a plethora of analytes in real time and in an efficient and cost-effective way. Areas of application include environmental monitoring, food science and safety, and wearable technologies for point-of-care devices tracking medical status. There is an ongoing work in the development and application of cheap, biodegradable materials to monitor diseases in areas with poor infrastructure. The development of new chemical sensors and the improvement o
