Abstract

Many people are interested in conducting polymers because of their unique qualities, such as biocompatibility, flexibility, low weight, simplicity of production, and capacity for surface modification. They are a top choice for use in biomedical applications, particularly in the highly sensitive and direct diagnostics of coronavirus, diabetes, neurological illnesses, etc. This chapter summarizes the advances in electrochemical sensing based on conducting polymers as active material. At the same time, a significant amount of deep insight into the electrochemical biosensor is provided. Additionally, a thorough investigation is shown on conducting polymers’ use in biomedical applications and their promise for the future.
