456 Bio Sensors

This presentation introduces biosensors and their components. A biosensor consists of a bioreceptor and transducer, where the bioreceptor (such as an enzyme) recognizes the target analyte and the transducer converts this recognition into a measurable signal. Examples of bioreceptors include enzymes, antibodies, and receptor proteins. Biosensors offer benefits like specificity, speed, and continuous monitoring capability. The presentation covers various types of bioreceptors, transducers, biosensor configurations and designs, applications in healthcare and other industries, and future prospects of the technology.

INTRODUCTION
What Is a Biosensor? Biosensor = bioreceptor + transducer. The bioreceptor is a biomolecule that recognizes the target analyte

whereas the transducer converts the recognition event into a measurable signal.

Enzyme is a Bioreceptor Requirements for Sensors

Need for Biosensor


Diagnostic Market The current climate of prevention the need for detection at increasingly lower limits is increasing in many diverse areas Clinical Testing Clinical testing is one of the biggest diagnostic markets clinical testing products market in excess of 4000 million US$ in the 1990s Other Markets The medical arena (Technical Insights Inc.) with veterinary and agricultural applications

Specificity
With biosensors, it is possible to measure specific analytes with great accuracy. Speed Analyte tracers or catalytic products can be directly and instantaneously measured Continuous monitoring capability Biosensors regenerate and reuse the immobilized biological recognition element

Bioreceptor Molecules
Enzymes

Enzymes act as catalysts for biochemical reactions occurring in the cell


Antibody

Antibodies constitute about 20% of the total plasma protein and are collectively called immunoglobulin
Receptor Protein

Receptor proteins having specific affinity for hormones, antibodies, enzymes Other Possibilities

Transducers

Conventional Transducers Piezoelectric Transducers Conductimetry Capacitance Measurement Thermometry Enzyme Thermistor FET as a Transducer

Growth of Biosensor

Biosensor Configurations Discriminative Membrane Sensitivity Requirements Immunoassay DNA Probe Evolution of Biosensors

Receptors
Receptors at Membrane

Biological receptors are protein molecules most of them are bound to the cell membrane Hormone Receptors Many hormones released into the blood do not penetrate the cell membrane but react with specific receptors at the cell surface Smell Receptor taste and olfactory receptors are typical examples of this biospecific recognition process Light Receptor

Types of biosensor
Glucose Biosensor

Amperometric Biosensor

Glucose biosensor using glucose oxidase is used as an example


Potentiometer Biosensor

Examples of Potentiometric Biosensor Penicillin biosensor Glucose biosensor Urea biosensor
