Abstract
There are strong demands for accurate, fast, and inexpensive devices in the medical diagnostic laboratories, such as biosensors and chemical sensors. Biosensors can provide the reliable and accurate informations on the desired biochemical parameters, which is an essential prerequisite for a patient before going for a treatment. They can be used for continuous measurements of metabolites, blood cations, gases, etc. Of these, electrochemical biosensors play an important role in the improvement of public health, because rapid detection, high sensitivity, small size, and specificity are achievable for clinical diagnostics. In this paper, the clinical applications with electrochemical biosensors are reviewed. An attempt is also made to highlight some of the trends that govern the research and developments of the important biosensors that are associated to clinical diagnosis.
