Biomedical Nanosensors

Swansea University Author: Sridhar Govindarajan

Abstract

Implantable electrochemical sensors offer great potential for improving the quality of healthcare for patients with chronic diseases (such as diabetes) and in hospital critical care. This chapter will deal with biosensors designed for continuous, real-time monitoring of analytes in the human body. S...
