[Thermobiosensors: features of design and function and prospects for their use].
Thermobiosensors are biosensors, which utilize thermal sensors (thermistors, thermocouple) for measuring changes of heat arising during ferment, immune or metabolic reactions. Thermosensors apply to an estimation of a condition of ferment systems, interactions of immune components, kinetics of a biocatalysis, and also for application in biochemical diagnostics, at definition of quality of products, monitoring of an environment and control of biotechnological processes. In the review the data, concerning of the major principle of development and creation mini- and microthermobiosensors, are given on the basis of modern achievement in the field of technology of micromanufacturing. The various types mini-, micro- and multithermobiosensors, and also their application in separate areas of the biochemical and clinical analysis and monitoring of an environment are surveyed. The development and modern achievement in creation of separate variants thermosensors is in detail described on the basis of thermistors and thermocouples. The place thermosensors in general development of biosensor controls is allocated and the attention to prospect of their further improvement and application is given.
