Biosensor

A biosensor is an analytical device which converts a biological response into an electrical signal. The term ‘biosensor’ is often used to cover sensor devices used in order to determine the concentration of substances and other parameters of biological interest even where they do not utilise a biological system directly. The analyte is coupled to various process including enzyme, antibody and later transduced to obtain a measurable signal. Examples include glucometer and several other diagnostic applications
