title: The recognition of beer with flow-through sensor array based on miniaturized solid-state electrodes.
abstract: Flow-through electronic tongue based on miniaturized solid-state potentiometric sensors has been developed. A simple technique, i.e. membrane solution casting on the surface of the planar Au transducers was applied for the preparation of classical ion-selective and partially selective microelectrodes, introduced in the flow-through sensor array. The performance of the designed electronic tongue was tested in the qualitative analysis of various brands of beer. Samples of the same brand of beer but with different manufacture dates, originating from different manufacture lots, have been applied in the studies. The combination of PLS and ANN techniques allowed the discrimination between different brands of beer with 83% of correct classifications.
