Abstract
A biochemical sensor according to an embodiment includes: a substrate; And an electrode disposed on the substrate, wherein the electrode includes at least one vertical portion formed in a direction perpendicular to the substrate.
Description
The present invention relates to a biochemical sensor and a method of manufacturing a biochemical sensor.
A biomolecule detection device (i.e., a biosensor) is an element capable of sensing an optical or electrical signal that changes depending on selective reaction and binding between a biological receptor having a recognition function for a specific biomolecule and an analyte to be analyzed . That is, the biosensor can confirm the presence of biomaterials, or analyze qualitatively or quantitatively. Here, as the biological receptor (i.e., sensing substance), an enzyme, an antibody, and DNA capable of selectively reacting with and binding to a specific substance are used. As a signal detection method, biomaterials are detected and analyzed by using various physicochemical methods such as electrical myth change depending on presence or absence of analyte and optical myth change due to chemical reaction of receptor and analyte.
In order to detect a component in the fluid, a chemical or an anti-body is coated on a flat electrode, and a change in a signal depending on the bonding state is measured to check the presence or absence of the component. At this time, most of the sensors use the micro chamber / channel to minimize the volume of the sample to be measured and to simplify the size of the sensor itself. However, when such a microchamber / channel is used, the fluid flowing inside is very close to the laminar flow with almost no flow, so that exchange between the solutions hardly occurs.
Therefore, after the component is detected on the chemical or anti-body coated on the electrode surface, the amount of the component detected while passing through the channel is sharply reduced because the component is not supplied again from the surrounding solution, Is very small.
The most straightforward way to solve this problem is to increase the surface area of the electrode and to improve the signal by making electrodes on several sides of the channel or by extending the length of the channel. However, when electrodes are formed on various surfaces of the channel, the process becomes very difficult. If the length of the channel becomes longer, the volume of the sensor becomes larger and the driving pressure becomes higher. Although a three-dimensional structure is added inside the channel to enhance the signal by forcibly mixing the flow, there is a limitation that additional structures must be additionally manufactured. If the structure interferes with the electrode, it has a limit that has adverse effect.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a method of manufacturing a biochemical sensor and a biochemical sensor that can increase the surface area of an electrode and complicate the flow of a fluid.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a method of manufacturing a biochemical sensor and a biochemical sensor which can be implemented at low cost with high sensitivity.
