A ISFET-based glucose sensor has inherent problems such as low sensitivity, drift effect and long response time. For that reason, a amperometric actuation technique was introduce to make a highly sensitivity of the ISFET glucose sensor with a Pt actuator, which electrolyzes $H_2O_2$, one of the by a by-products of the oxidation reaction of glucose. Moreover, a potential-step measurement method detecting response by only the electrolysis of $H_2O_2$ was developed for eliminating a drift problem. The operation characteristics of ISFET-based glucose sensor was improved by using the amperometric actuation and a measurement techniques. The fabricated ISFET glucose sensor is shown good operation such as characteristics(30mM PBS, about 26mV/decade) and linearity. A portable glucose meter with a highly resolution by using the fabricated ISFET-based glucose sensor with Pt actuation was developed and its characteristics investigated.

pH-ISFETs, the semiconductor pH sensors, were combined with immobilized enzyme membranes to prepare FET type urea and glucose sensors and its operational characteristics were investigated. Photolithography techniques were applied to immobilize enzymes on the $H^{+}$ sensing membrane of the pH-ISFET with photo-sensitive polymers, PVA-SbQ. Fabricated urea and glucose sensors could determine $0.5{\sim}50{\;}mg/dl$ urea concentrations and $10{\sim}1000{\;}mg/dl$ glucose concentrations, respectively.

A preparation method and response characteristics of a glucose sensor which consisted of pH-ISFET and glucose oxidase-immobilized membrane were investigated. The pH-ISFET glucose sensor was fabricated by immbilizing bovine serum albumin and glucose oxidase with glutaraldehyde on gate of the pH-ISFET. Effects of pH and concentration of working buffer and enzyme load on the pontentiometric response of the pH-ISFET glucose sensor were examined. Response characteristics for the determination of glucose in synthetic physiological saline solution(pH 7.4) were as follows. That is the concentration range of linear response, slope of linear response(sensitivity), and response time were $1.0{\times}10^{-4}{\sim}6.0{\times}10^{-3}M $, 4.1 mV/decade, and 12~15 min., respectively.

In this study, a micro-glucose sensor was fabricated by micromachining technology and its sensing characteristics were investigated. The 7740 pyrex glass was used as the bottom substrate and anisotropically etched silicon wafer was used as the top substrate. The size of the fabricated microchip is 1.58${\times}$1.58mm$^2$. It is shown that output current exhibits a linear change according to glucose concentration (100 mM ∼ 300 mM). It is also shown that the response time for glucose was within 240 sec. It was followed by a saturation trend within 50 sec. The g1ucose sensor with Fc$\^$+/ exhibits relatively higher sensitivity than that without Fc$\sub$+/ for output current.

The purpose of this study is to develop biosensor for determination of glucose, lactate, and ethanol in foods and food-stuffs simultaneously. The multiple cathode system was prepared with an oxygen electrode having one anode and hexagonal cathode. Glucose oxidase, mutarotase, lactate oxidase, alcohol oxidase and catalase were used for immobilization to determine glucose, lactate, and ethanol. These components including ethanol were simultaneously determined by the immobilized enzymes in the multiple cathode system. The determination of the components by enzyme sensor was based on the maximum slope of oxygen consumption from enzyme reaction of each sensor part. The response time for analysis was 1 min. The optimum condition for glucose, lactate and ethanol sensor was found to be 0.1 M potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.0 at $40^{\circ}C$. Interferences of various sugars and organic acids were investigated. Less than 10% of error was found in determination of the components except organic acids. This difference was compensated by the modified equation. This system was confirmed by conventional methods. It was concluded that the multiple cathode system of this study is for an effective method to determine sugar, organic acid, ethanol simultaneously in foods.

The sensitivity of ISFET glucose sensor is improved by employing amperometric actuation method. However, this method takes long time to recover the primary output voltage after measurement because of slow migration of the hydrogen ion between internal and external sensing membranes. Consequently, such a recovery-time delaying problem is one of obstacles to a practical use. In this paper, a new method is proposed to control the concentration of hydrogen ion in internal membrane, which applies a reduction potential to the working electrode for supplying hydroxide ion. Experimental results show that the recovery-time was reduced within 2 minute against decades minute of conventional method.

The ISFET glucose and sucrose sensors containing platinum electrode and photopolymeric enzyme membrane were fabricated. The platinum working electrode was used for the electrolysis of hydrogen peroxide, which was the other product of the enzyme reaction, to improve sensing characteristics of the sensors. In order to improve response time, photo-crosslinkable polymer(PVA-SbQ) was used to the matrix for the enzyme immobilized membrane. The characteristics of glucose and sucrose sensors were investigated according to the variation of platinum electrode area. The response time was about $3{\sim}5$ minutes and determinations of glucose and sucrose in the range of about $30{\sim}300mg/dl$ could be possible.

In this study, CuO was introduced on MWCNTs dispersed with Au nanoparticles to improve the glucose sensing capability of electrochemical biosensors. Nano-cluster shaped CuO was synthesized due to the presence of Au nanoparticle, which affects glucose sensing performance. The biosensor featuring CuO/Au@MWCNTs nanocomposite as an electrode material when 0.1 mole of CuO was synthesized showed the highest sensitivity of $504.1{\mu}A\;mM^{-1}cm^{-2}$, which is 4 times better than that of MWCNTs based biosensors. In addition, it shows a wider linear range from 0 to 10 mM and lower limit of detection (LOD) of 0.008 mM. These results demonstrate that CuO/Au@MWCNTs nanocomposite sensors are superior to other CuO based biosensors which are attributed that the nano-cluster shaped CuO is favorable for the electrochemical reaction with glucose molecules.

This study was to determine the optimum conditions of malt extracting temperature, extracting time of malt in water, ratio of malt to water, and rice volume of malt extract water on saccharification in producing sikhe (sweet rice drink) using central composite design of response surface methodology. Glucose and maltose were analyzed by a biosensor having dual cathode system. The optimum temperatures of malt extracting for glucose and maltose were 60 and $55^{\circ}C$. The saccharification power for the two sugars was highest when malt powder soaked for 6.5 and 5.75 hour, respectively. And ratios of malt to water for optimum saccharification were 1 : 6.3 to 1 : 8.8, respectively. The optimum volumes of malt extracting to rice for the two sugars were 0.48% and 0.6%, respectively. The application of response surface methodology to sikhe processing showed a good correlation with high significance.
