About This Book
Smart Diagnostics for Neurodegenerative Disorders: Neuro-sensors explores all available biosensor-based approaches and technologies as well as their use in the diagnosis, prognosis and therapeutic management of a variety of neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and epileptic disorders. The book also discusses contemporary and revolutionary biosensor platforms that are being used to produce a quantitative quick lab-on-a-chip point-of-care (POC) assay for several types of predictive and diagnostic biomarkers linked with neurodegenerative disorders. It offers a combinatorial strategy for learning recent advances and designing new biosensor-based technologies in the fields of medical science, engineering and biomedical technology.
Early detection of neurological conditions has the potential to treat the disease and extend the life expectancy of patients. Recent improvements in biosensor-based approaches that target specific cell surface biomarkers can be used for early detection of neurodegenerative disease.
- Provides an in-depth understanding of biomarkers associated with neurodegenerative disease to build and create a variety of biosensors
- Presents biosensor-based strategies to create and construct enhanced platforms for quick diagnosis of biomarkers linked to a variety of neurological illnesses
- Discusses the current challenges and future trends in developing diagnostic devices for early detection of neurodegenerative disorders, presenting new avenues for more sensitive and selective point-of-care devices
