Integration in bioanalysis: technologies for point-of-care testing

Adv Biochem Eng Biotechnol. 2013:133:1-14. doi: 10.1007/10_2012_164.

Abstract

Biosensors, Lab-on-Chip technologies, and sensor-actor molecules are steps towards the integration of bioanalysis into small devices that will help in providing analysis where it is needed: the point-of-care. This article gives a brief overview of recent achievements and future prospects.
