Can paper-based biosensors provide reliable and affordable cancer diagnostics?
A review published in 'Trends in Chemistry' analyses the challenges to be faced to develop precise, specific and low-cost biosensors for point-of-care diagnostics of cancer, which would have a great impact on therapy effectiveness and cost containment, in particular in settings where access to advanced technologies and laboratories is difficult. This work, coordinated by ICREA Prof. Arben Merkoçi, was carried out by members of the ICN2 Nanobioelectronics and Biosensors groups and other international centres.
