This textbook describes the basic principles and mechanism of action of biosensor systems, and introduces readers to the various types of biosensors; from affinity biosensors to catalytic, optical and label-free biosensors, the most common systems are explained in detail. Dedicated advanced sections focus on biochips and genome sequencing methods as well as organs-on-a-chip. The textbook helps readers to understand the elementary components of biosensors, and to identify and illustrate each function in the biosensor information flow, from recognition to transduction and transmission. Furthermore, readers will receive guidance in critically analyzing published studies on biosensor research, helping them to develop appropriate concepts and independently propose their own solutions. The textbook is intended for master’s students in bioengineering, biophysics, biotechnology and pharmacology that need a solid grasp of biosensor system technologies and applications, as well as students in related medical technological fields.

This book focusses on recent advances and different research issues in the biosensor technology and also presents theoretical, methodological, well-established and validated empirical work dealing with the technology. The book addresses challenges for the development of a point-of-care test platform. The book also describes printed chip-based assay (Lab-on-a-Chip, Lab-on-a-PCB) for rapid, inexpensive, multiplex detection of disease biomarkers in real samples. It aims to overcome existing barriers for Lab-on-a-Chip commercialization (lack of cost effective mass manufacturing methods, self-contained, fully autonomous operation and user-friendliness). Different advanced techniques including electrochemical, optical, mass, colorimetric and signal amplification strategies describe early stage disease diagnosis. The book gathers scientific and technological novelties and advancements already developed or under development in the academic and research communities. It covers a vast audience from basic science to engineering and technology experts and learners.

In the medical, food, and environmental fields there is a continuous demand for inexpensive and sensitive analytical devices that are reliable, rapid, capable of high-throughput screening, and have low cost per test unit. Small and portable biosensor devices are designed to fulfill most of these requirements, and can be used in laboratory and on-site field testing. This volume discusses major issues in optical, acoustic and electrochemical-based biosensors, biochips, sensing recognition elements, and biosensors for medical and environmental applications. The papers presented at the conference represent basic and applied research studies in the fields of diagnostic assays and biosensor development. Novel technologies, such as arrays of sensors using high-density fiber optics to sense labeled or unlabeled oligonucleotides, and patterned arrays of recognition elements, demonstrated the capability of biosensors to analyze multiple analytes.
