Biosensors for the determination of drug substances.

A review of the use of biosensors for the determination of drug substances is presented. Although primary emphasis is placed on drugs of abuse, for example, cocaine, heroine, and morphine, other pharmaceutically important drugs, such as theophylline, Inderal, codeine, lidocaine, and the phenothiazines, are also discussed. Applications in both the liquid phase and the gas phase are presented.
