Abstract
Electrochemical detection is one of the most powerful techniques in sensing applications, in particular for biomedical sensors. Its combination with carbon-based materials gives several advantages in terms of sensitivity, increase of electrode area and biocompatibility. In this chapter a first part will be focused on the electrochemical properties of carbon, then several electrode nanostructuration approaches will be presented. The last part will describe the use of these techniques for the detection of metabolites, and an application based on the use of Carbon NanoTubes in ElectroChemiLuminescence detection will conclude the chapter.
