Abstract

In this work, a biosensor was designed and assembled from carbon nanotubes (CNTs) structure for biomedical applications. The characteristics of this biosensor were determined after the optimization of the performance parameters on synthetic species. In practical use, the sensitivity of the biosensor was determined as a function of the CNTs size and it was found to decrease exponentially with increasing the size of CNTs.
