Electrochemical Sensors

Electrochemical sensors are devices that detect specific chemicals in a sample by measuring electrical signals generated through chemical reactions. They work by using electrodes that interact with target substances, causing changes in electrical properties like voltage or current. These changes are then interpreted to identify and quantify the chemicals present. Such sensors are commonly used in medical diagnostics (like blood glucose monitors), environmental monitoring, and food safety, because they offer rapid, accurate, and often portable analysis. Their ease of use and sensitivity make them valuable tools across various fields requiring chemical detection.
