β¦ Synopsis
Combining flow injection analysis with a biosensor is a novel biosensing process which has allowed speedy and accurate analysis. Diagnostic analysis is the most important application for biosensing flow injection analysis, but other applications include bioprocess monitoring, analysis of food and agricultural products, as well as environmental analysis. In addition, the analysis of compounds, such as explosives and abused drugs, and monitoring of Salmonella, the microorganism that causes food poisoning, have been reported.

An amperometric biosensor for determination of penicillin was developed. Penicillinase was immobilized by cross-linking with glutaraldehyde and bovine serum albumin, which was dropped on a platinum disc electrode. The principle of this electrode is based on the classical iodometric penicillin assay.
Screen printed ampemmetric glucose biosen~ors were constructed and optimised for use in a flow injection analysis (FIA) system. The sensors were fabricated using a catalytic metallised carbon based ink, allowing a working potential of + 350 mV (Ag/AgCI). Overall the sensors displayed a high degree o
