Abstract
The need of disposing of analytical information in real time in many fields of bioanalytical and bioindustries explains the great attention devoted to biosensor development. A biosensor is usually defined as resulting from the combination of a sensitive biological element capable of molecular recognition and a transductor (electrode, optical detector…) which gives a meaningful mostly electrical signal. During the last decade, major development has concerned electrode tipped with enzymes, antibodies or other reagents that interact chemically with analytes -the substances being analysed. Such biosensors are expected to have numerous applications in the field of medicine and biology (Brennan and Krull,1992).
