Abstract

The structure of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), a type of macromolecular systems, can be thought as rolling up a graphene sheet along certain directions. The unique properties of CNTs, such as very high surface/volume ratio, high chemical stability, high electro-catalytic activity and high charge transfer efficiency, make CNTs a very suitable material for biosensor applications. It is due to these advantages that a variety of CNT related biosensors have been developed since discovery of CNTs. In this chapter, recently reported CNT-based electrochemical and electronic biosensing applications are summarized.
