Brazilian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, São Paulo, v. 46, n. 3, p. 375-391, jul./set. 2010.e- 2175-9790http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/18594Given the increasing demand for practical and low-cost analytical techniques, biosensors have attracted attention for use in the quality analysis of drugs, medicines, and other analytes of interest in the pharmaceutical area. Biosensors allow quantification not only of the active component in pharmaceutical formulations, but also the analysis of degradation products and metabolites in biological fluids. Thus, this article presents a brief review of biosensor use in pharmaceutical analysis, focusing on enzymatic electrochemical sensors.engAcesso AbertoBiosensorsEnzymesPharmaceutical analysisElectrochemical sensorsBiossensoresEnzimasAnálise farmacêuticaSensores eletroquímicosArtigo10.1590/S1984-82502010000300002
