Low-cost Diagnostics: Fabrication, Materials, and Applications
Diagnostics are essential components of the healthcare and medical industry. Their uses range from initial prognosis to accurate identification to continuous monitoring of the effectiveness of interventions. However, many diagnostics have a high cost, requiring specialist training and bulky instruments, and being time consuming to use.
Developments in detection technology and manufacturing have created a family of diagnostics that are:
-
inexpensive and portable,
-
easy to handle without special training,
-
possible to mass produce,
-
generally harmless and do not hold any potential health risk and
-
highly sensitive with low detection limits and excellent robustness
Compiled from recent findings by leading global researchers, this book is a comprehensive reference for researchers looking to develop low-cost diagnostics for societal impact as well as health professionals interested in learning more about this technology. Broken down into five sections, coverage includes different techniques such as fluorescent probes, electrochemiluminescence and electroanalytical; fabrication of different types of biosensors; real-world applications; nanomaterial-based biosensors; and, finally, diagnostics based on 3D-printing for the diagnosis of viral infections and more.
Replacing existing conventional devices minimizes limitations and increases access. There is no need for you to continue to use the second best, read about how you can make an impact with new diagnostic tools that will save you time and money.
