Zusammenfassung:A sensor is provided for conversion of chemical and/or biochemical information from an analyte in a sample to an electrical signal. The sensor includes a test cantilever having a base and a deformable part, with a receptor layer for selective uptake of the analyte applied at least atop the deformable part, with a first and second test transducer arranged atop the test cantilever, and a reference cantilever having a base and a deformable part, with a reference layer for selective non-uptake of the analyte applied at least atop the deformable part, with a first and second test transducer arranged atop the reference cantilever. The transducers output an electrical signal corresponding to the occurrence and/or the concentration and/or the amount of the analyte in the sample.
