title: Recent developments in piezoelectric immunosensors. A review.
abstract: The development of piezoelectric (PZ) devices as immunosensors is reviewed. The recent advances in sensor design have stimulated great interest in PZ technology and facilitated diverse applications in a variety of matrices. Methods of antibody immobilization on crystals and several applications are reported including microgravimetric immunoassays, microbial toxins and other contaminants.
