BIOCHIP
INTRODUCTION
Symbiosis between electronics and biology/medicine
Bio + Chip = Biochip
Bio: stands for any biological entity eg: protein, DNA
Chip: a computer chip
Biochip: a mate between biological entity and a computer
Collection of miniaturized test sites of living entities (micro arrays) arranged on a solid substrate that permits many tests to be performed at the same time in order to achieve higher throughput, speed, accuracy and smaller size
BIOCHIP PLATFORM
Requires micro array technology, transduction and signal processing technologies to output the results of sensing experiments
