The continuous measurement of chemical species is important for physiological and biochemical research and for critical care medicine. Chemical sensors are being developed for the measurement of a wide range of analytes, especially gases, vapours, ions, catabolites, drugs and hormones. The mechanical form of these sensors may be adapted for use in single cells, tissue fluid and blood vessels, on the skin surface, in the respiratory and gastrointestinal systems. Optical and electro-chemical principles are now used widely for sensor design, and advances in electronic fabrication methods and in optical fibres, sources, and detectors, have been important.
化学物质的连续测量对于生理和生化研究以及重症监护医学至关重要。正在开发化学传感器以测量多种分析物,尤其是气体、蒸汽、离子、分解代谢物、药物和激素。这些传感器的机械形式可适用于单细胞、组织液和血管、皮肤表面、呼吸和胃肠道系统。光学和电化学原理现在广泛用于传感器设计,并且电子制造方法以及光纤、光源和探测器的进展也很重要。
