All-polymer Biosensor for Label-free Point of Care Diagnostics Johannes Daprà

The growing demand for point-of-care analytical systems requires novel miniaturised and sophisticated sensor systems. This book describes the development of an all-polymer biosensor platform for electrochemical detection of analytes from liquid media. Conductive polymers were employed for the electrical structures, while aptamers were used as recognition elements. The wide range of applicability of this sensor is shown on the basis of three different analytical challenges.
