Abstract. During the last decade, the sensors based on chitosan had been an active research topic due to its great practical value. The sensors had showed excellent superiority, low cost, ease of fabrication, fast response time and nice repeatability. This review discusses the preparation and application of sensors based on in metallic ion detection, non-metallic ions detection, organic detection and biosensors are reviewed, and future applications are prospected.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
