| Abstract: | Biosensors are obtaining an increasing significance for analytical purposes as well as for on-line monitoring and control in biotechnological processes [1]. In the special field of food industry enzyme and microbial biosensors are suited. With enzyme sensors one can analyse in mostly high specific reactions many substances – microbial sensors normally are unspecific. But they have the advantage of high stability and there is no necessity of enzyme isolation and purification. On the basis of the manifold of microbial metabolic pathways one can expect a wider range of application for microbial sensors, much more as existent for enzyme sensors. This paper is dealing with a microbial aspartam sensor. |
