Health and Environmental Applications of Biosensing Technologies: Clinical and Allied Health Science Perspective

Health and Environmental Applications of Biosensing Technologies: Clinical and Allied Health Science Perspective, presents a detailed overview on biosensor design systems and optimal fabrication technologies in order to have a greater impact on various industries and to help organizations break existing performance trade-offs to deploy biosensor technologies across inter/transdisciplinary businesses. With emerging biological threats from pathogenic microorganisms and increasing environmental pollutants, it is essential to ensure the safety needs of individuals and the eco system are met. Modern materials science and engineering has evolved over the years to better develop devices to test abnormalities. Research on biosensors, particularly in healthcare diagnosis (communicable and non-communicable disease) is the need of the hour, especially as they are applicable for decentralized hospital zones. Affordability, accessibility and reliability of any analytical system is the prime necessity for a modern diagnostic application. Industries working on conventional analytical systems are sophisticated not portable, often in need of skilled manpower and complex in data interpretation. Thus, there are several opportunities and challenges available in this subject area for widespread applications. This book presents novel and emerging trends in biosensor design and healthcare applications focused on API detection, communicable/non-communicable disease diagnosis, food quality monitoring, agro-environmental analysis, bio-defense, and industrial pollutant sensing. In addition wearable biosensors, commercial products and safety regulations for biosensing technologies are summarized. This book integrates knowledge from fabrication, mechanics, materials science and reliability points of view.
