Abstract

The present review describes recent advances in the development of an artificial nose system based on olfactory receptors and various sensing platforms. The kind of artificial nose, the production of olfactory receptors, the sensor platform for signal conversion and the application of the artificial nose system based on olfactory receptors and various sensing platforms are presented. The associated transduction modes are also discussed. The paper presents a review of the latest achievements and a critical evaluation of the state of the art in the field of artificial nose systems.

Keywords: Artificial nose system; Bioelectronic nose; Electronic nose; Human olfaction; Olfactory receptors; Sensing platforms.
