Abstract

The advantages of modern microsystem technologies as applied to the production of amperometric biosensors (including manufacture of transducers, immobilization of biological material, combining different procedures in one technological cycle) are analyzed. The modern commercial systems based on amperometric biosensors and the fields of their application are described.
