Nanosensors in Healthcare Diagnostics examines the role of nanosensors in clinical microbiology, point-of-care sensing, clinical diagnostics, and therapy.
This book addresses the concept of nanosensors and their utilization in healthcare diagnostics, and therapy. It covers the principles and mechanisms involved in nanosensor-based diagnostics platforms. It also discusses various approaches and techniques used in the preparation of nanosensors as well as the biomedical application of nanosensors in clinical diagnostics and their significance in the detection, treatment, and management of diseases. This book is a useful reference for researchers, graduate students, and industry professionals studying nanosensors in biological and medical sciences.
• Brings together multiple perspectives, in-depth analyses, and insights on nanosensors and its application in disease diagnostics and therapy
• Covers the basic aspects of functioning principles and discusses the technologies and challenges of present and future analytical sensing approaches for diagnosis and treatment
• Outlines the significant types of nanosensor platforms explored and developed for efficient detection
