Abstract
Electrochemical sensors have an enormous potential in a wide variety of environmental, industrial, and medicinal applications. Apart from the immense success of glucose sensors, much more work is still needed in order to make electrochemical sensors have a widespread impact and application. For example, the current circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated the importance and urgency of having accurate and rapid diagnostic devices The advancement of sensors could truly help stop the spread of many infectious diseases Compared to other diagnostic tools currently available, electrochemical sensors have many advantages such as low-cost, rapid and real-time detection with simple operation They can also be mass-produced and miniaturized into portable devices
