Electrochemical miRNA Biosensors: The Benefits of Nanotechnology

The importance of nanotechnology in medical technologies, especially biomedical diagnostics, is indubitable. By taking advantages of nanomaterials, many medical diagnostics methods have been developed so far, including electrochemical nanobiosensors. They have been used for quantification of different clinical biomarkers for detecting, screening, or follow up a disease. microRNAs (miRNAs) are o...

Acoustic biosensors

Resonant and acoustic wave devices have been researched for several decades for application in the gravimetric sensing of a variety of biological and chemical analytes. These devices operate by coupling the measurand (e.g. analyte adsorption) as a modulation in the physical properties of the acoustic wave (e.g. resonant frequency, acoustic velocity, dissipation) that can then be correlated with...

Impedimetric biosensors.

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is a sensitive indicator of a wide variety of chemical and physical properties. An increasing trend towards the development of impedimetric biosensors is being currently observed. Impedimetric techniques have been performed to characterize the fabrication of the biosensors and to monitor the catalyzed reactions of enzymes or the biomolecular recognit...
