Abstract

Abstract: Clinical manifestations of the elevated plasma triacylglycerol (TG) include a greater prevalence of atherosclerotic heart disease, acute pancreatitis, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and ischemic vascular disease. Hence, these significant health troubles have attracted scientific attention for the precise detection of TG in biological samples. Numerous techniques have been employed to quantify TG over many decades, but biosensors hold the leading position owing to their superior traits such as highly specific recognition for target molecules, accuracy, minituarization, small sample requirement and rapid response. Enzyme-based electrochemical biosensors represent an instantaneous resolution for the foremost bottlenecks constraining laboratory prototypes to reach real time bedside applications. We highlight the choice of transducers and constructive strategies to design high-performance biosensor for the quantification of triglycerides in sera and early diagnosis of health problems related to it. In the present review, a small effort has been made to emphasize the significant role of enzymes, nanostructured metal oxides, graphene, conducting polypyrrole, nanoparticles, porous silicon, EISCAP and ENFET in enabling TG biosensors more proficient and taking a revolutionary step forward.
