Summary of different techniques of electrochemical biosensors.

Transducer Technique Merits Demerits Ref
Electrochemical Potentiometric
  • Possibility of constant study on diverse biomolecule

  • Real-time detection

  • Time-consuming

  • Profound to the surrounding atmosphere

  • Interference induces by nonspecific binding

[87,88]
Impedimetric
  • Instantaneous detection

  • Simplicity

  • User friendly

  • Requires bulky device

  • Need theoretical simulation for facts study

  • Low sensitivity

[89,90,91]
Conductometric
  • Suitable for colored analytes

  • No need for an indicator

  • Accurate

  • Nonspecificity

  • High interference

  • Increased levels of salt may lead to errors

Amperometric
  • Simple

  • Affordable

  • Miniaturize

  • Easy to operate

  • Require redox element to boost the production of current

  • Time-consuming
