The sea-man's kalender, or, An ephemerides of the sun, moon, and certain of the most notable fixed stars [[electronic resource] ] : Also, rules for finding the prime, epact, moon's age, time of high-water, with tables for the same; and the courses, distances, and soundings of the coasts of England, Scotland, Ireland, France, &c. And a table of latitude and longitude, of the principal ports, head-lands, and islands in the world; first calculated by John Tap: now rectified and enlarg'd with many additions. Viz. A new exact table of the north-star, and new tables of 65 of the principal fixed-stars, their coming upon the meridian every day; with their right ascension and declination, &c. With a discovery of the long hidden secret of longitude, by Henry Bond, teacher of the mathematicks. And many other rules and tables added, very useful in the art of navigation.

Sommario/riassunto

Biosensor technologies have received a great amount of interest in recent decades, and this has especially been the case in recent years due to the health alert caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The sensor platform market has grown in recent decades, and the COVID-19 outbreak has led to an increase in the demand for home diagnostics and point-of-care systems. With the evolution of biosensor technology towards portable platforms with a lower cost on-site analysis and a rapid selective and sensitive response, a larger market has opened up for this technology. The evolution of biosensor systems has the opportunity to change classic analysis towards real-time and in situ detection systems, with platforms such as point-of-care and wearables as well as implantable sensors to decentralize chemical and biological analysis, thus reducing industrial and medical costs. This book is dedicated to all the research related to biosensor technologies. Reviews, perspective articles, and research articles in different biosensing areas such as wearable sensors, point-of-care platforms, and pathogen detection for biomedical applications as well as environmental monitoring will introduce the reader to these relevant topics. This book is aimed at scientists and professionals working in the field of biosensors and also provides essential knowledge for students who want to enter the field.
