Note: ByvsnsvrھA or nano-sensors based on a wide range of applications such as biological materials are  pharmaceutical industry, food industry, environmental science, military industry and so on, especially Biowar branch  out.

The development of biosensors to measure the concentration of dissolved oxygen in the blood began. This sensor is also called COBD  by covering the surface of the electrode with an enzyme whose  constituent is sometimes called (electro-calorie). Later, it  helped oxidize glucose. This sensor was used to measure blood sugar. In  the same Bapvshandn electrode by an enzyme that has the ability to convert urea into ammonium carbonate in the  electrode material ++ ion, NH4 biosensors that could have made the urea in the blood or urine  measure. 



Each of these two early biosensors used a different transducer in their signal conversion section  In the first type, the blood sugar level was measured by measuring the electric current produced  (ammetric), while in the urea sensor, the urea concentration is measured based on the  amount of electric charge generated in the sensor electrodes (potentiometric)  . The need to see a doctor and only on the basis of information provided  by a COBD or Doctor-Board-on-Chip to diagnose the type of disease and then  inject into the blood. This will drastically reduce the dosage of  the required  drugs directly from the side effects of the Effect-Side drug , because the  drug is very low and is also sent  to the required place in the body. That the drug acts directly on a biosensor converts the biological response into an electrical signal and  consists of two main components: the receptor and the detector. The selectivity of a  biosensor is determined by the receiving section. Enzymes, antibodies, and lipid layers are  good examples of receptors.



The task of the detector is to convert the physical or chemical changes by detecting the material to be analyzed into a clear factor  that the detectors can select in the type of reaction of the  electrical signal. Do not have the perfect  

Types of nano-detectors (or transducers or converters or detectors) used in nano-sensors include: 

They are electrochemical, optical, piezoelectric and thermal. In the type of electrochemistry, the action takes place in one of the  following ways: amprometric, potentiometric, and impedance. The most common electrodes  used in potentiometer type 1 include: Electrode Glass electrode, Selective-Ion electrode electrode,  FET sensitive-Ion field effect transistor or ISFET. Generally, a biosensor consists of an immobilized static biological system, such as a cell  bundle, mycenzyme, or an antibody and a measuring device. In the presence of a certain molecule, the biological system  changes the properties of the environment. A measuring device that is sensitive to these  changes produces a signal commensurate with the amount or type of change. This signal can then  be converted into a comprehensible signal for electronic devices.



The advantages of nano-biosensors over other existing measuring devices can be summarized as follows:

He expressed:

Many non-polar molecules form in living organs that do not respond to most existing measurement systems  Biosensors can receive this response. They are based on the built-in Immobilized biological system,  so they have no side effects on other tissues. Continuous and very fast control of metabolic activities is possible by these sensors.
