This review covers the development of measurement configurations for chemiresistors based on conducting polymers. The simplest chemiresistors are based on application of a two-electrode technique. Artifacts caused by contact resistance can be overcome by application of a four-electrode technique. Simultaneous application of the two- and four-electrode measurement configurations provides an internal control of sensor integrity. An incorporation of two additional electrodes controlling the redox state of chemosensitive polymers and connecting to the measurement electrodes through liquid or (quasi)solid electrolyte results in a six-electrode technique; an electrically driven regeneration of such sensors allows one to perform fast and completely reversible measurements.
