Biosensors are analytical devices that convert biological responses into recognizable and measurable signals, allowing for qualitative and quantitative determination of test samples for specific target analytes. Flavonoids are a group of oxygen-containing heterocyclic natural products commonly found in the human diet. In this chapter, a brief overview of flavonoids, the significance of their quantification, and the fundamentals of biosensors, including the types used for flavonoid quantification, are discussed in detail.
