“…The use of mediator biosensors based on the use of compounds capable of reversible oxidation-reduction makes it possible to obtain results independent of the oxygen level in the analyzed sample and, in addition, to create devices quite small in size and weight ( Figure 8 , [ 40 , 41 , 42 ]). R&D resources in the field of mediator rapid BOD analyzers are directed in two directions: directly creating BOD biosensors based on the use of mediator electron transfer [ 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 ] and modifying the standard method of BOD analysis [ 47 , 48 , 49 ]. The possibility of modifying the standard method of BOD analysis using mediators was first presented by Pasco and co-authors in 2000 [ 50 ].…”
