Biosensors healthcare

At present a limited number of commercial SPR-based biosensor systems are available. Further information and the technical specitications relating to the different biosensor instruments can be obtained from the following manufacturers websites GE Healthcare (Biacore), Sensate Technologies Inc. (Spreeta), and Reichert (SPR) Inc. ° ... 

Of the commercial SPR biosensors listed above, the Biacore brand (GE Healthcare) is the most well established technology and has the largest market share in terms of food analysis. A range of test kits (QHex kits) are produced speciflcally for use with the Biacore Q SPR... 

Biosensors based on conducting polymers have found potential applications in healthcare, veterinary medicine, environmental monitoring, immunosensing, etc. 

The analytical technology based on biosensors is an extremely wide field, which impacts on all the major industrial sectors such as pharmaceutical, healthcare, food, agriculture, environment and water. Biosensors offer advantages as an alternative to conventional methods as ideally they overcome issues in the latter in order to analyse vitamins simultaneously. Specific biorecognition of the analyte by a biological system or biologically derived elements used in a biosensor can potentially reduce extensive and time-consuming sample preparation.
