Addressing the origin, current status, and future development of
point-of-care diagnostics, and serving to integrate knowledge and
tools from Analytical Chemistry, Bioengineering, Biomaterials, and
Nanotechnology, this book focusses on addressing the collective and
combined needs of industry and academia (including medical schools)
to effectively conduct interdisciplinary research. In addition to
summarizing and detailing developed diagnostic devices, this book
will attempt to point out the possible future trends of development
for point-of-care diagnostics using both scientifically based
research and practical engineering needs with the aim to help
novices comprehensively understand the development of point-of-care
diagnostics. This includes demonstrating several common but
critical principles and mechanisms used in point-of-care
diagnostics that address practical needs (e.g., disease or
healthcare monitoring) using two well-developed examples so far: 1)
blood glucose meters (via electrochemistry); and, 2)
pregnancy tests (via lateral flow assay). Readers of this
book will come to fully comprehend how to develop point-of-care
diagnostics devices, and will be inspired to contribute to a
critical global cause – the development of inexpensive,
effective, and portable in vitro diagnostics tools (for any
purpose) that can be used either at home or in resource limited
areas.
