Advances in Personalized Nanotherapeutics

Abstract

Application of novel biosensor platforms has acquired paramount importance in the field of point-of-care diagnostics, environmental monitoring and drug delivery. The recent biosensor device development using submicron-sized dimensions has opened new horizons for detection of clinical analytes as well as signaling molecules secreted from living cells. Taking advantage of the unique properties of the micro/nano fabrication technology integrated with electrochemical techniques, faster and sensitive biosensors can be developed. The present chapter discusses the basic concepts of electrochemical biosensors, recent developments in the biosensor industry and importance of biosensors in personalized drug delivery.
