Nanostructured Materials for Electrochemical Biosensors

June 5, 2010 by · Leave a Comment 

Product Description
Electrochemical biosensors are portable devices that permit rapid analysis of substances. They are most useful in detection and monitoring of biological, chemical and toxic agents. Briefly, with the help of transducer, the generated electrical signals from the responses to change in the bioactive layers are used for the interpretation. Similarly, nanomaterials have number of features that make them ideally suited for sensor applications, such as, its high surface area, high reactivity, easy dispersability and rapid fabrication. This collected work composed of the expert knowledge of many specialists in the construction and use of electrochemical biosensors made of nanostructured materials. This includes nanomaterials such as dendrimers, polymers, nanoparticles, nanotubes, oxides, enzymes and their hybrids as catalyst for various sensors such as glucose sensors, DNA sensors, neurotransmitters sensors, etc. This collected work provides new methodological advancements related to and correlated with the measurement of interested species in biomedical samples. Many studies are also included to illustrate the range of application and importance of the electrochemical biosensors. This provides the unique opportunity for readers to choice a new methods and applications of new electrochemical biosensors.

Monitoring Diabetes Without Pain and Blood: Biosensors Offer

May 27, 2010 by · 1 Comment 


Monitoring Diabetes Without Pain and Blood: Biosensors Offer New Alternatives CNDLS documents research by Georgetown College prof in a short video. Prof. Mak Paranjape says “much thinking takes place with my students.” A daily regimen of pricked fingers and blood tests is an essential part of life for someone living with diabetes. Monitoring blood glucose levels can be tiresome, even with today’s improved monitoring devices. Drs. Mak Paranjape and John Currie, researchers in the Georgetown Advanced Electronics Laboratory (GAEL), are working to take the process to a whole new level. For the past few years, the team has been developing and testing a new biosensor device for blood glucose monitoring. The size of a small bandaid, it is designed to be worn anywhere on the body, where the biosensor samples tiny amounts of fluids that lie just beneath the skin. The device is small and convenient, and makes measuring glucose levels pain-free and noninvasive.
