Abstract

Dilute solution of chitosan has been deposited on glass slide by inkjet printing and the efficacy of the coating for its formability, morphology and functionality has been explored. The chitosan coating was characterized by SEM, AFM, Optical Microscope and Spectrophotometer. The biosensor formulation (ferritin) entrapped between two layers of chitosan coating exhibited active functional characteristics confirming that chitosan coatings fabricated by inkjet printing could be utilized for optical biosensor applications.
