Overview
ABSTRACT
As medical diagnosis increasingly uses the analysis of biochemical markers and constants in patients, it is becoming important to have the ability to follow the concentration of a molecule at a given point of the body in real-time; this is the main function of biosensors implantable in vivo. The implantable glucose biosensors thus improve the quality of life for suffers of diabetes by enabling them to continuously monitor their glycemia. In the domain of neurosciences, the implantable biosensors allow for a better understanding of chemical communication in the brain.

INTRODUCTION
As medical diagnosis increasingly relies on the analysis of markers and biochemical constants in the patient, it is becoming important to be able to monitor the concentration of a molecule at a given point in the body in real time: this is the main function of in vivo implantable biosensors. Implantable glucose biosensors thus considerably improve the quality of life of diabetics by enabling them to continuously monitor their blood sugar levels. In the field of neuroscience, implantable biosensors provide a better understanding of the role of chemical communication in the brain.
