The second chip is made of glass, where the three electrodes cell was fabricated. This design offered more flexible testing and multi diagnostician at the same chip. The performance of such biosensor is then examined using the electrokinetic and cyclic voltammetry techniques in order to ensure the quality of the biosensor. The effect of the microchannel size on the performance of the sensor was then investigated by conducting cyclic voltammetry testing for four different sizes of the fabricated channels at electrode size of 1 OO.im.
