“…Nano particle-immobilized LBL membranes, for example, can be applied to electrochromic devices. 28 Polysaccharides, 29 Cu(II) ions 30,31 and Ru(bpy)3 2+ ions 32 have been immobilized in LBL or PIC membranes. From these reports, it has been found that small molecules can be immobilized in polyelectrolyte complexes.…”

The immobilization of biomolecules is an important technique for bio-analysis, and can be applied to biosensors with both high selectivity and high sensitivity. Many researchers have developed immobilization techniques to optimize these characteristics. In the last two decades, an immobilization technique that meets the desired requirements was developed by using polyelectrolytes to form complexes, based on the electrostatic binding between polycations and polyanions. This review summarizes the techniques used for the immobilization of biomolecules by polyelectrolyte complexes; it also discusses related subjects.

“…For example, antibodies are highly sensitive to pH, temperature changes, and variation in salt concentration. Bacteria, however, is more tolerant and, in addition, can be protected from environmental conditions as a way of hardening the sensor system to increase operational lifetime, improve portability, and preserve function of cells [3][4][5][6] .…”
