Summary
Probing
in micro world using electrochemical microsensors, progress and
challenge will be covered in this special issue. Electrochemical
microsensors have been studied for the last 3 decades as highly
sensitive and selective yet relatively inexpensive device to probe
micro world for applications ranging from chemical and biological
sensing to clinical and medical care. This wide range of applications
is due to electrochemical microsensors high sensitivity, selectivity,
fast response time and low manufacture cost. In this special issue
different electrochemical sensors and their applications will be
described.
