Overview

This book includes the most up-to-date point-of-care cancer detection technologies and processes, which are based on biomedical sensors, microfluidics and integrated systems engineering. It compiles detailed literature on various novel applications of nano biosensors in cancer diagnosis by primarily focusing on non-invasive biomarker detection, use of nanoparticles, and biosensor applications. It also includes current advancements and diagnostic tests that can be conducted outside of the laboratory in remote areas. Electrochemical sensors, paper-based microfluidics, and other kit-based diagnostic techniques are just a few of the technologies that can be tweaked to bring cancer detection and diagnosis to more remote parts of the globe. This book is an ideal resource for researchers in the fields of nanotechnology, nanobiotechnology, and medical studies. Key Features: Covers in detail the Role of nano biosensors for early detection of cancer Clinical use of nanoparticles in biosensor development is incorporated where useful Importance of non-invasive biomarkers for the detection of cancer is stressed The utility of nano biosensors in cancer diagnosis is covered particularly from a third-world perspective Extensive references included to enhance further study
