Abstract:Biomedical sensors are often developed under a bottom-up approach, i.e. the researcher point of view or laboratory approach. This is usually the case for microfluidic based integrated systems. The small number of such devices actually translated for use in clinical situations is mostly due to the need of sample pretreatment by specially trained people and to the fact that industrial transfer had not been taken into account since the very beginning of the development. Conversely, the top-down approach places th… Show more
