"Electronic noses" sind Messinstrumente, die den Geruchssinn nachahmen. Sie bestehen aus Sensoren und einer geeigneten Datenverarbeitung und können Gerüche präzise und kostengünstig erkennen und unterscheiden. Dies macht sie sehr attraktiv für eine bemerkenswerte Anzahl an Anwendungsbereichen, z.B. in der Lebensmittel- und pharmazeutischen Industrie, in der Umweltanalytik, der klinischen Diagnostik und weiteren Branchen.
Das Buch deckt die biologischen und technischen Grundlagen und die aktuelle Forschung mit Beiträgen anerkannter internationaler Wissenschaftler ab und liefert anwendungsorientierte Berichte von erfolgreichen Herstellern solcher elektronischer Nasen.
Dieses neue Standardwerk ist daher auf diesem Gebiet sowohl für Wissenschaftler in Forschung und Entwicklung als auch für die Anwender ein absolutes Muß.

"...This book is a valuable information source...This reviewer was captivated that he ended up with enough notes for a book review of several thousand words!..."
Measurement & Control
"Providing a comprehensive and timely overview of our current state of knowledge of the use of electronic noses, the Handbook of Machine Olfaction covers the biological, chemical and technical basis of the technology as well as the latest up-to-date research and advancements.
Constributions by renowned international scientists as well as application-oriented news from succesful "e-nose" manufacturers give a well-rounded account of the topic, and this coverage from R&D to applications makes this book a must-have read for e-nose researchers, designers and user alike."

"This 600-page book is an excellent primer and collection of core material; including a very large number of authoritative literature references. It is quite impossible in a short review, to do justice to the rich worldwide collection of ideas and research...The chapter on drift compensation, standarts and calibration methods should be required reading for all involved in investigating the quality of data from on-line instruments. This book is a valuable information source for the workers in the field, measurement and control students...This reviewer was so captivated that the he ended up with enough notes for a book review of several thousend word!"
