What is Biosensor

• A biosensor is an analytical
device which converts a
biological response into an
electrical signal.
• It detects, record and transmit
the information regarding
physiological change or
process.
• It determines the presence and
concentration of a specific
substance in any test solution.
What is Glucose Biosensor

• Glucose reacts with


glucoseoxidase (GOx) to form
gluconicacid. Two electrons &
two protons are also produced.‡
• Glucose mediator reacts with
surrounding oxygen to form
H2O2 and GOx.‡
• Now this GOx can reacts with
more glucose.
• ‡Higher the glucose content,
higher the oxygen
consumption.‡
• Glucose content can be detected
by Pt-electrode.
Characteristics of Biosensor

• LINEARITY: Maximum linear value of the sensor calibration curve.


Linearity of the sensor must be high for the detection of high
substrate concentration.
• SENSITIVITY: The value of the electrode response per substrate
concentration.
• SELECTIVITY: Interference of chemicals must be minimized for
obtaining the correct result.
• RESPONSE TIME: The necessary time for having 95% of the
response.
Types of Biosensor
• Piezo-Electric Biosensors
• Electrochemical Biosensors
• Optical Biosensors
• Photometric Biosensors
• Thermal Biosensors
ELECTROCHEMICAL BIOSENSOR PRINCIPLE:
Many chemical reactions produce or consume ions or electrons
which in turn cause some change in the electrical properties of the
solution which can be sensed out and used as measuring parameter.
CLASSIFICATION
(1) Amperometric biosensor
  (2)Conductimetric biosensor 
(3) Potentiometric biosensor
Application of Biosensor

• In Food industries for Food Analysis


• Study of biomolecules and their interaction
• Drug Development, discovery and evaluation of biological activity
of new compounds.
• Crime detection
• Medical diagnosis (both clinical and laboratory use)
• Environmental field monitoring
• Quality control
• Industrial Process Control
• Detection systems for biological warfare agents
• Manufacturing of pharmaceuticals and replacement organs
• Analytical measurement of folic acid, biotin,vitamin B12 and
pantothenic acid.
Why Glucose Biosensors are Important?

Glucose biosensors are:


• Important tools in food safety, diagnostics, medical monitors, and
detection systems for biological warfare agents.
• Important devices offering analytical simplicity both in and outside
the analytical laboratory.
• Selective, rapid and sensitive instruments for determination of
chemical and biochemical targets
• Important to improve the prognosis of diabetes and critically ill
patients
• Glucose monitoring technologies to maintain healthy lifestyle and
prevent diabetes related complications. Ex: premature death, kidney
failure, blindness.
• It is of importance in the food industry for quality control purposes,
in fermentation and, most importantly, as a clinical indicator of
diabetes.
