Whole-cell biosensors: Research and patents
In the last ten years several research articles and patents related to the obtaining and uses of whole-cell biosensors (WCB) have been published. Whole-cell sensors, whole-cell biosensors, chemical sensors, integrated sensors and bioreporters (among others) are the main terms used to define a living...
