A. Cambiaso et al., AN H-FET-BASED SYSTEM FOR ONLINE DETECTION OF MICROORGANISMS IN WATERS(), Sensors and actuators. B, Chemical, 34(1-3), 1996, pp. 245-251
A flow-through system for on-line detection of microorganisms in water
s is presented, A Si3N4 ISFET with integrated signal-conditioning elec
tronics, expressly designed for this application, is employed as an Hf
sensor. The article describes the system principles, the transducer a
rchitecture, a preliminary characterization of the developed sensor ch
ip, and preliminary measurements performed in the presence of microorg
anisms.
