The project, which was launched in November 2013, is funded by the EC Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) and has been designed to directly respond to requests for integrated and effective data acquisition systems by developing innovative sensors that will contribute to our understanding of how the marine environment functions. COMMON SENSE is coordinated by the Leitat Technological Centre, Spain, and its consortium brings together 15 partners from seven different countries, encompassing a wide range of technical expertise and know-how in the marine monitoring area.

The management of diabetes is therefore critical to future society, and this is driving demand for point-of-care (POC) glucose biosensors, and they play a central role in the management blood sugar levels in patients with diabetes. Glucose Oxidase (GOx) is a biorecognition enzyme, which recognises the glucose molecule and acts as a catalyst to produce gluconic acid and hydrogen peroxide in the presence of glucose and oxygen.[1] Ionic Liquids are organic salts, which are liquid at ambient temperature. Their non-volatile character and thermal stability makes them an attractive alternative to conventional organic solvents. We are interested in studying the characteristics of GOx in ionic liquids, and in polymer materials incorporating ionic liquids known as ionogels. Herein we report the enzyme activity of GOx in a biosensor fabricated using a novel hybrid ionogel. This approach potentially offers several advantages over conventional materials. For example, the ionogels can be chemically and physically tailored for a particular requirement. [3] The design of these ionogels ensures that the enzyme is effectively retained in the polymer, thus preventing leaching. The ionogel-biosensor has been incorporated into a compact, portable and low cost device, which allows the real time monitoring of enzyme activity of GOx. Based on this model, we project that this device will provide the platform for measuring the enzyme activity of a wide range of enzymes.

Recently, ultrafast lasers have also allowed developing new methods for production of internal microfluidic channels within the bulk of glass and polymer materials by direct internal 3D laser writing. This review critically summarizes the latest advances in the production of microfluidic 3D structures by using 3D printing technologies and direct internal 3D laser writing fabrication methods. Current applications of these rapid prototyped microfluidic platforms in biology will be also discussed. These include imaging of cells and living organisms, electrochemical detection of viruses and neurotransmitters, and studies in drug transport and induced-release of adenosine triphosphate from erythrocytes.
