Biosensors: Innovations in Disease Detection and Monitoring

Micael Lechano

Biosensors have emerged as powerful tools in medical biotechnology, enabling rapid and sensitive detection of biomarkers for disease diagnosis and monitoring. This manuscript provides a comprehensive overview of biosensors and their applications in disease detection and monitoring. It explores different types of biosensors, including optical, electrochemical, and nanosensors, highlighting their working principles and advantages. The manuscript discusses the use of biosensors in diagnosing diseases, monitoring treatment responses, and enabling point-of-care testing. It also addresses the challenges and future prospects of biosensor technologies in improving healthcare outcomes.
