Electrochemical and Fluorescent Sensors for Healthcare Applications
Abstract
This chapter delves into the pivotal role of electrochemical and fluorescent sensors in healthcare applications, highlighting their innovative contributions and future potential. This comprehensive overview underscores the transformative potential of electrochemical and fluorescent sensors in advancing medical diagnostics and patient monitoring. Electrochemical and fluorescent sensors have emerged as powerful tools in healthcare, offering sensitive and rapid detection of various biomolecules and analytes. In present-day applications, these sensors play pivotal roles in point-of-care diagnostics, enabling real-time monitoring of glucose levels for diabetic management, detecting infectious diseases such as Covid-19 through antigen testing, and tracking biomarkers indicative of various health conditions like cancer or cardiovascular diseases. Their versatility, portability, and ability to provide quantitative data make them indispensable in advancing personalised medicine and improving patient outcomes.
