Biosensor, and a method and a device for quantifying a substrate in a sample liquid using the same
摘要
The biosensor of this invention can quantify a substrate in a sample liquid by electrochemically measuring the amount of an electron acceptor that has been reduced by electrons generated in a reaction between the substrate and an oxidoreductase. The biosensor has an electrically insulating substrate and an electrode system formed on the substrate including a working electrode, a counter electrode and a third electrode used for detecting a liquid junction. The third electrode can be used merely for detecting a liquid junction, or can be used as both a reference electrode and a liquid junction detecting electrode.
