Conducting polymers: an emerging field of biosensors

Abstract

Conducting polymers have attracted much interest in the development of biosensors. Electrically conducting polymers are known to possess numerous features, which allow them to act as excellent materials for immobilization of biomolecules and rapid electron transfer for the fabrication of efficient biosensors. The present review describes the salient features of conducting polymers as biosensors, their construction, working, importance and applications.
