Potentiometric Biosensing Applications of Graphene Electrodes with Stabilized Polymer Lipid Membranes

Abstract

This review provides information and details about the fabrication of biosensors composed of lipid membranes that can be used to rapidly detect toxic compounds in food, environmental pollutants, and analytes of clinical interest. Biosensors based on polymeric lipid membranes have been used to rapidly detect a wide range of these analytes, offering several advantages including fast response times, high sensitivity and selectivity, portability for field applications, and small size. A description of the construction of these devices and their applications for the rapid detection of toxic substances in food, environmental pollutants, and analytes of clinical interest is provided in this review.
