title: Conducting polymers and the bioanalytical sciences: new tools for biomolecular communication. A review.
abstract: This review covers the evolution of conducting polymers and their use in the bioanalytical sciences. It is the controlled dynamic behaviour of these unique materials that enables such diverse and high-level performance to be achieved. The construction and application of conducting polymers for use as biosensors are the particular emphasis of this paper. Biocompatibility is briefly discussed.
