Biosensor
Based on Ceramic Carbon Electrodes
Ceramic carbon electrodes (CCE) consist
of electronically conductive carbon particles that are bound together
by a ceramic binder formed through the sol-gel process. The addition of
the silicate endows the resulting composite electrodes with robust
mechanical properties. Recent studies have shown that CCEs are
promising candidates for biosensory applications. The choice of inorganic-organic
hybrid material and
carbon material can greatly influence the electrode properties. Our
research investigates select
silane and carbon precursors
and study their effect on CCE properties (such as sensitivity,
morphology, active area, etc.).
