Abstract
As indicated in previous chapters, the top two most popular transducers for biosensors are optical and electrochemical, followed by piezoelectric and thermal. We have already learned a great deal of optical transducers and equipment for biosensor applications in Chaps. 8 and 9. In this chapter, we will learn another very popular transducer for biosensors: electrochemical.
