<pre>An insect odorant receptor-based "bioelectronic nose" was developed, using a thin-film transistor to amplify responses of an insect odorant receptor protein to specific volatile compounds. One of the major challenges encountered in this thesis was variability in the quality of sensor functionalisation. Extensive electrical characterisation indicated the presence of an unidentified contamination layer which prevented electrical interaction between the insect odorant receptors and the transducer thin-film. This repository collects all the code used when examining sensor behaviour.</pre>
