Rawat 1 K. Dashora 1 Swarnlata Saraf 1 S. Saraf 1 Institute of Pharmacy, Pt. Ravishankar Shukla University, Raipur - 492 001 (India) Biosensor is an analytical device, which converts a biological response into an electrical signal. This paper reviews the principal milestones in the history of biosensor development, classification, patterning, sensitivity, selectivity and applications. The current success of glucose biosensors is attributed to the extraordinary demands of diabetes and the ability of biosensors to offer a convenient, hygienic and compact method of personal monitoring. Biosensors offer enormous potential to detect a wide range of analytes in health care, the food industry and environmental monitoring. Biosensors represent a rapidly expanding field, at the present time, with an estimated 60% annual growth rate. https://www.biotech-asia.org/vol3no2/biosensors-a-new-analytical-tool-a-review/
