Abstract

In this study, it is aimed to produce microelectrodes which can be used in the detection of neurotransmitters that are related with brain disorders such as Parkinson, Epilepsy, and Schizophrenia and that exist in the central nervous system (CNS). A 4-channel, ceramic based fabrication is performed towards this goal by using photolithographic methods. The time-current graphic response against the addition of H2O2 the produced microelectrode is analyzed in the calibration test. It is observed that the response is in stepwise form. In addition, limit of detection (LOD) of the produced microelectrodes and linearity values are shown to be within the desired ranges.
