Bio Sensor

Biosensor research is a field focused on developing devices that integrate bioreceptor components (such as enzymes, antibodies, or nucleic acids) with physicochemical transducers to detect specific analytes. The biological component recognizes a specific target, and the transducer then converts the biological response into a measurable signal, such as an electrical signal. The goal is to create portable, rapid, and sensitive tools for disease diagnosis, environmental monitoring, food safety, and other applications. This type of biosensor has been developed by the Advanced Functional Materials Laboratory at ITB, including devices for detecting glucose, dopamine, and Hepatitis B proteins.
