β¦ Synopsis
Surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensors have been coated with different organic polymers. Their sensitivities and selectivities towards gaseous solvents such as water, methanol and automotive fuel in dry air are determined. Four sensors are combined to form an array and a pattern-recognition technique (partial least square regression, PLS) is applied to sensor responses obtained from ternary mixtures of analvtes. The observed sensitivities of the sensor array and the prediction properties of the model are discussed. -

A surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensor system utilizing a SAW resonator operating at 61 MHZ and a pair of parallel electrodes in series was applied to the detection of organic mixtures. Linear frequency shifts were observed as the water content of organic solvents changed. The detection limit was 2 mg
Isotherms for water, nitrobenzene and 2-nitrotoluene adsorbed onto a platinum/lead coated 15 MHz AT-cut piezoelectric crystal are reported. Both the nitrobenzene and 2-nitrotoluene isotherms were BDDT type 1 (Langmuir) in shape, as were the water isotherms, and showed predictable behaviour over temp
The urea sensor was prepared by combining a surface acoustic wave (SAW) device, in which a SAW resonator operating at 61 MHz and a pair of parallel electrodes were used in series, with urease extracted from green soya bean. The Michaelis constant and maximum reaction rate of the urease were estimate
