Abstract
The development of an amperometric DNA‐based biosensor (genosensor) requires the optimization of many experimental parameters in order to maximize sensitivity. If only one parameter is evaluated per experiment, the resultant genosensor is unlikely to be ideal, because several of the parameters could be interdependent. Herein, chemometric experiments employing full and fractional factorial designs were used to develop biosensor for hepatitis. The results demonstrate that the use of chemometric tools enables optimization of experimental conditions using a smaller number of experiments and with reduced requirements for reagents and samples, which is in line with the principles of green chemistry.

Statistically based experimental planning is becoming commonplace in engineering and scientific disciplines. One of the most frequently used planning procedures is factorial design. This procedure, however, often provides inadequate coverage of the experimental space (the space whose coordinate axes
## Abstract An accelerometer is a transducer that allows measuring the acceleration acting on a structure. Physically, an accelerometer consists of a central mass suspended by thin and flexible arms and its performance is highly dependent on the dimensions of both the mass and the arms. The two mos
Encoding and processing information in DNA-, RNA-and other biomolecule-based devices is an important requirement for DNA based computing with potentially important applications. To make DNA computing more reliable, much work has focused on designing the good DNA sequences. However, this is a bothers
