The phrase "a sensitive component" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when referring to a part of a system or device that is delicate or requires careful handling.
Example: "The technician advised us to handle the sensitive component with care to avoid any damage during installation."
Alternatives: "a delicate part" or "a fragile element."
The Prussian Blue (PB) film used in this study as an optochemically sensitive component of the sensor [ 20] was obtained by soaking a 100 μm-thick transparent plastic foil (Lumocolor® universal photocopy film, Staedtler®,) into a solution of 0.1 mol L−1 K3Fe(CN)6 in 1 mol L−1 HCl saturated with Pyr-BAc as additive.
Zhu et al. identified a plant temperature sensitive component in disease resistance and provided a potential means to generate plants adapting to a broader temperature range [ 67].
Autotrophic plant respiration (Ra) is a large, environmentally sensitive component of the ecosystem carbon balance, and net ecosystem carbon flux will change as the balance between photosynthesis and respiration changes [3, 44, 45].
Specifically, little is known about how urbanization impacts tall tree canopy epiphyte communities, a unique and sensitive component of Pacific Northwest trees which are known to contribute essential ecosystem functions.
Autotrophic plant respiration (Ra) is a large, environmentally sensitive component of the ecosystem carbon balance, and net ecosystem carbon flux will change as the balance between photosynthesis and respiration changes [ 3, 44, 45].
The 2-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydratases are two-component systems composed of an extremely oxygen-sensitive component A, an activator, and component D, the actual dehydratase.
This property is used as the sensitive component of a gas sensor.
An interdigital electrode (IDE) was added in serial with a SAW resonator (SAWR) as the sensitive component.
The CNV might be a sensitive ERP component to detect possible facilitation of attention "priming"; for instance, Bostanov, Keune, Kotchoubey, and Hautzinger (2012) demonstrated that mindfulness practice can increase CNV negativity in depressed adult populations.
