About this Research Topic
Point-of-care (POC) devices have become essential in modern diagnostics, enabling rapid, on-site testing that is crucial for immediate medical decision-making. These devices avoid the need for traditional lab facilities, offering quick and accessible testing in various settings, from hospitals to remote areas. Electrochemical biosensors are at the forefront of POC technology, known for their high sensitivity and ability to detect a wide range of biological analytes by converting biological interactions into electrical signals. The integration of nanotechnology has significantly advanced these sensors, enhancing their performance through the use of nanomaterials, which offer greater sensitivity, faster response times, and lower detection limits.
This special issue aims to present the latest scientific advancements in electrochemical and nanotechnology-based POC devices, focusing on novel research in biosensor design, nanomaterials, and innovative detection methods. It seeks to demonstrate the practical applications of these technologies in fields such as medical diagnostics and environmental monitoring, while also addressing key technical challenges, including sensitivity, specificity, and integration into healthcare systems.
