A litmus-paper-like test that utilized glucose oxidase (GOx), peroxidase (POx), and a chromogen to quantify glucose in urine was developed by the Miles-Ames Laboratories in 1957 [3]
Potentiometric, and impedimetric or conductometric glucose biosensors based on the GOx were developed and employed for biomedical applications
Summary
Potentiometric, and impedimetric or conductometric glucose biosensors based on the GOx were developed and employed for biomedical applications. Enzyme-based biosensors for glucose monitoring can be used off-line, in vivo and on-line [6]. The off-line glucose estimation is usually carried out using biosensor-based analytical equipment and samples from different sources can be tested. In vivo biosensors are implanted and extracellular changes of glucose concentration are detected continuously [2].
