Handbook of Biosensors Technology

One of the biggest gaps in diagnosing diseases ranging from infectious diseases to cancer is early diagnosis. Today, biosensor technology has the potential to revolutionize early diagnosis of many diseases in a cost-ef- fective, fast, and reliable manner. Biosensor technology has been shaped by contributions from various disciplines such as chemistry, physics, engineering, biology, medicine, and pharmacy, from the design and production to the optimization of biosensors. Therefore, this book provides answers to the question of whi- ch stages are involved in developing a biosensor and what its final application areas are. The aim of this book is to provide a broad range of information, from basic knowledge to applications in the field of biosensors. Today, from biomedical engineering to materials engineering, and from medicine to pharmacy, this book serves as a fundamental resource for all courses related to biosensors in master’s and doctoral programs at various institutes in Turkey and around the world. Especially for higher education candidates, researchers, and those new to biosensors, this source book will help them easily understand the contributions and impa- cts of different disciplines in the development of biosensors and their applications. It aims to convey the fun- damentals and applications of innovative technologies accurately. Composed of 10 separate chapters written by 15 active and experienced researchers in the field, this book covers all related subtopics and serves as an easily understandable handbook for anyone interested in this field. It is hoped that this book will provide endless contributions to everyone interested in the field of biosensors.
