Cover Story: We present a methodology for the quantitative chemical sensing of target materials in an inspected solution by employing bioluminescent bioreporters as the sensing apparatus. Variations in the signal between different bacteria batches and changing environmental conditions are overcome via an in situ comparison between the responses produced by the inspected solution and a standard solution containing a known concentration of the target material. An extension of the measurable concentration range is obtained by parallel measurements of the responses produced by several types of bacteria, each sensitive to a different segment of the concentration range. This methodology was implemented in a module in which the bioluminescence signals produced by bioreporters that are exposed to the inspected and standard solutions are monitored in parallel.
