Applied Biochemistry and Microbiology Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

The review briefs recent advances in application of biosensors for determining biological oxygen demand (BOD) in water. Special attention is focused on the principles of operation of microbial BOD sensors; the information about biorecognition elements in such systems and the methods used for immobilization of biological components in film biosensors is summarized. Characteristics of some BOD sensor models are considered in detail.
