enzymatic biosensors

Enzymatic biosensors are devices that use enzymes—proteins that speed up specific chemical reactions—to detect substances, such as glucose in blood. The enzyme interacts with the target substance, producing a measurable signal like an electrical current or color change. This allows for quick, accurate, and specific detection of chemicals in biological or environmental samples. These sensors are vital in medical diagnostics, food safety, and environmental monitoring, offering a reliable and efficient way to analyze complex samples with minimal effort.
