An integrated model for the characterisation of the output signal course of
oxidase-bound amperometric biosensors is presented and evaluated in the ca
se of glucose biosensors. This model integrates two earlier proposed models
, the model of oxygen transducer-based biosensors. allowing the prediction
of steady state parameters from the transient response and the dynamic sign
al lag model, characterising the electrochemical diffusion-limited sensors.
The integrated model allows the characterisation of the whole biosensor si
gnal output. originating from the output curve itself with errors less than
3% and no need to determine the system's geometrical. diffusion and partit
ion parameters. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
