Towards disposable sensors, recent developments and pharmaceutical applications of screen printed electrodes

T
he combination of modern electrochemical systems along with screen printing
technology give an amazing chance for the introduction of potential and powerful
analytical tools for efficient monitoring and analysis of pharmaceuticals, biomarkers and
metabolites, environmental and food pollutants. Screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) can
successfully address the time constraints associated with the conventional laboratory
analysis. The adaptability and low-cost of this technology is accountable for its nonstop
expansion and the continuous grow within the SPEs field to discover new areas of
applications. Their improvements mainly will depend on incorporating new printed
materials, new ligands, new polymers, further nanostructure materials and new supports.
Recently, SPEs are coupled to biomolecules with the assistance of modern electroanalytical
techniques and offers an excellent chance for therapeutic drug monitoring. In this work,
detailed description of the elementary fabrication principles, the different designs of SPEs
and the different analytical methods that are based on SPEs will be presented. Special
emphasis is given on the electrochemical application of SPEs in pharmaceuticals analysis,
their recent designs and the future perceptions.
