Bio-sensor
A biosensor is an
analytical device, used
for the detection of an
analyte, that combines
a biological component
with a physicochemical
detector.
Types of Biosensors
Electrochemical biosensor
Optical biosensor
Thermal biosensor
Resonant biosensor
Ion-sensitive biosensor
Electrochemical biosensor
Principle:
Many chemical reactions produce or consume ions or
electrons which in turn cause some change in the
electrical properties of the solution which can be
sensed out and used as measuring parameter.
Classification:
1. Amperometric Biosensors
2. Conductimetric Biosensors
3. Potentiometric Biosensors
Amperometric Biosensors
1. Thermocouple
2. Resistance temperature detectors (RTD)
3. Thermistors
4. Infrared sensors
Thermocouple
► Limited temperature
► High sensitivity to
range
small temperature
changes ► Fragile
➢ Thermocouples
➢ Resistance
Temperature Detectors
(RTDs)
➢ Thermistors
➢ Infrared Sensors
Infrared Applications
► Manufacturing process like metals, glass, cement, ceramics,
semiconductors, plastics, paper, textiles, coatings.
