✦ Synopsis

Two Divisions of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC), namely the Physical Chemistry (Steering Committee on Biophysical Chemistry) and the Analytical Chemistry (Commission V.5 on Electroanalytical Chemistry), are preparing recommendations on the definition, classification and nomenclature relating to electrochemical biosensors. The scope is deliberately limited to electrochemical transducers, but could, in the future, be extended to other types of biosensors. While these recommendations are discussed within IUPAC bodies and before a final approval is obtained for publication in Pure andApplied Chemistry, the following proposals are made and comments
