Abstract

Electrochemical methods of analysis are methods based on the interconversion of chemical and electrical energy. These approaches can be divided into the areas of potentiometry, amperometry, conductometry, and coulometry. These methods, particularly potentiometry and amperometry, have been widely used in clinical laboratories for decades. Many new biosensors that are emerging for use in laboratory medicine are based on electrochemistry, at least in part, because they allow direct measurement of analytes rapidly and nondestructively in complex matrices. This chapter will cover the basics of electrochemical measurement as well as clinical examples of each type of technique.
