Definition of Sensor
“... device, that responds to a physical (or chemical) stimulus (heat, light, sound, pressure, motion, magnetism...) and transmits a resulting impulse (as for measurement or operating a control).”Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary
Biochemical Sensor
“... A device incorporating a biochemical sensing element either intimately connected to or integrated within a transducer”.Also, A Self-contained integrated device that is capable of providing specific qualitative or semi-quantitative analytical information using a biological recognition element which is in direct-spatial contact with a transduction element. (IUPAC,1998)
1)Biosensor ≠ Bioanalytical System
2)An Enzyme Electrode is a Biosensor
Current Definition of Biosensors
A sensor that integrates a biological element with a physiochemical transducer to produce an electronic signal proportional to a single analyte which is then conveyed to a detector.
Applications of Biosensors
Advantages of Biosensors
- Highly Specific.
- Independent of Factors like stirring, pH, etc.
- Linear response, Tiny & Biocompatible.
- Easy to Use, Durable.
- Require only Small Sample Volume.
- Rapid, Accurate, Stable & Sterilizable.
