Development of a biosensor library based on inexpensive printed circuit board technology

The first step is reviewing what has already been done in the lab and around the globe. Then we will Identify the biomarkers to target and techniques that can be used to do so. Next is to design a device in such a manner that the desired interaction is happening for efficient sensing of the target. Coordination with other students working on integration of the device will be maintained in order to ensure that sensor designs can be interfaced to the overall instrument. Then we will fabricate the sensor using machinery in the Micro Instrumentation lab and test the device against real samples. Depending upon its performance during testing phase, there will be some design changes to make it better. Some iterations will be done to come up with best design. Integrating this with the existing biosensor library will ensure possibility of multiplexing the tests. TO BE CONT’D
