Abstract
Electrochemical biological sensor device unite the sensitivity of classic instrumental techniques with the inseparable selectivity of the biological agent. The bio-element of the sensing device identifies the analyte following in a biocatalytic way and definitely generates an electrical response recorded by a transducing element. The signal is proportional to concentration of the analyzed substance. Certain of developed modern biosensors are commercial available and are regularly applied in clinical, environmental, or industrial arrangements. The enzymatic electrode is often the principal element of electrochemical biosensors. The choice of suitable composition of agents, in example: biocatalyst, mediators, semiconducting elements, supports, for design of enzymatic sensors directs an electrode activity according to electron transport rate, its stability, and vitality.
Presented article underlined also the variety of technologies for creation of sensors basing on carbon nanotubes and their application in detecting of a numerous of biological molecules.
