A number of industries have, at their core, a need to frequent or even continuous analysis of biological media. These include the medical and pharmaceutical fields, biotech firms, and food and chemical companies.
To maintain quality standards and develop new products, these industries rely heavily on devices to monitor and analyze aqueous biological solutions. This critically important device is known as an Electrochemical Biosensor.
Innovative Sensor Technology (IST) AG is a leader in the Electrochemical Biosensor industry. The company provides its clients with a variety of the devices designed to meet the needs of their specific applications.
According to the company’s website, “The detection of a large number of compounds is of great relevance, not only for scientific research but also for process control in the chemical and food industry. It is also indispensable in the healthcare field for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases and monitoring of illnesses.”
The biosensors from IST AG are designed to measure the concentration of glucose, lactate, glutamine and glutamate in aqueous media.
They rely on the enzymatic-amperometric measurement principle for their functionality. Their technology is also fully compatible with gamma and beta irradiation.
