ABSTRACT:
A device and method for detecting and/or continuously measuring the concentration of oxidizable biodegradable substrates in a medium. The device comprises an oxygenated first electrode and a second electrode. The first electrode is capable of carrying microorganisms capable of oxidizing the substrates in the presence of oxygen thus releasing electrons. The electrons are received by the second electrode and detected and/or measured by the device. The rate of electron transfer correlates to the concentration of substrate in the medium providing a method of continuous measurement of the substrate in the medium.
