Book Next Generation Point of care Biomedical Sensors Technologies for Cancer Diagnosis

Download or read book Next Generation Point of care Biomedical Sensors Technologies for Cancer Diagnosis written by Pranjal Chandra and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-30 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents recent research on cancer detection methods based on nanobiosensors, which offer ultrasensitive point-of-care diagnosis. Several methods for diagnosing cancer have been discovered and many more are currently being developed. Conventional clinical approaches to detecting cancers are based on a biopsy followed by histopathology, or on the use of biomarkers (protein levels or nucleic acid content). Biopsy is the most widely used technique; however, it is an invasive technique and is not always applicable. Furthermore, biomarker-based detection cannot be relied on when the biomarkers are present in an extremely low concentration in the body fluids and in malignant tissues. Thus, in recent years highly sensitive and robust new cancer diagnosis techniques have been developed for clinical application, and may offer an alternative strategy for cancer diagnosis. As such, this book gathers the latest point-of-care cancer diagnostic methods and protocols based on biomedical sensors, microfluidics, and integrated systems engineering. It also discusses recent developments and diagnostics tests that can be conducted outside the laboratory in remote areas. These technologies include electrochemical sensors, paper-based microfluidics, and other kit-based diagnostic methods that can be adapted to bring cancer detection and diagnostics to more remote settings around the globe. Overall, the book provides students, researchers, and clinicians alike a comprehensive overview of interdisciplinary approaches to cancer diagnosis.

Book Molecularly Engineered Surfaces for Early Cancer Diagnosis

Download or read book Molecularly Engineered Surfaces for Early Cancer Diagnosis written by Mohammad Raziul Hasan and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early detection of cancer can have immediate and significant impact on effective treatments for cancer patients and better disease prognosis. In the early stage of cancer, symptoms are initially expressed at molecular and cellular scales. Identification and capture of cancer cells can greatly advance cancer research. This research work is aimed to introduce novel biosensors and technologies for early cancer detection. We developed a one-step method to create nanotextured polymer substrates and showed the effect of surface nanotexture on cancer cell adhesion and cell surface interactions. The nanotextured surface was functionalized with an antibody to selectively capture cancer cells from a cell mixture. Nanotextured PDMS showed higher cell adhesion strength and enhanced cell capture. We also demonstrated a reversible sealed modular device approach to integrate nanotextured substrates into microfluidics for cell capture applications. The modular approach simplified cell capture workflow, provided easy assembly, and enabled a user-friendly method to access cells for post-capture analysis. We also observed that cancer cells showed distinct morphology on biofunctionalized surfaces. We developed a technique to quantify cell gestures using dynamic morphology from time-lapse optical micrographs of cells on functionalized surface. We used a supervised machine learning method to develop an automated system to identify cancer cells from their gestures. The system offered rapid, efficient, and novel identification of brain cancer cells and can be extended to classify many other types of tumor cells. Both of these detection mechanisms were based on the expression of protein biomarkers on the cell surface. A nanopore sensor is a unique platform for detecting protein biomarkers from ionic current signatures. The underlying mechanism of protein translocation through the nanopore is very difficult to understand from outside. We constructed a molecular dynamics model to simulate protein translocation through a nanopore to reveal the interatomic interactions and investigate the deformation mechanisms of thrombin inside a nanopore due to externally applied electric fields. We investigated the structural integrity of protein and its deformation dynamics inside a nanopore. The development of this technique has advanced nanopore research by providing insights about molecular level information to complement macroscopic measurements in the laboratory.

Book Electronic Biosensors for Early Cancer Detection

Download or read book Electronic Biosensors for Early Cancer Detection written by Waqas Ali and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanotechnology is an emerging field that holds promise to improved disease diagnosis and better health care. It has revolutionized the medical industry and is continuing to mesmerize in other research areas as well. Even after tremendous advancements in disease detection and treatment techniques, high mortality rate due to cancer necessitates the need for new sensing platforms for early cancer detection.The focus of this dissertation is development of new sensing platforms that are highly sensitive and selective and are able to detect the tumor at an early stage i.e.cellular or molecular level. We demonstrated that breast cancer tumor cells and lung cancer tumor cells could be successfully differentiated with the micropore biosensor.This biosensor was fabricated using standard device fabrication technology. Micropore sensor differentiated tumor cells using the difference in their cell properties. Since the cell properties of tumor cells are different than the normal cells, this property was used as an inherent cell marker alleviating the need of any external cell markers that are conventionally being used for tumor detection. With micropore sensor tumor can be detected even before it gets metastasized: a primary requirement for early cancer detection. With nanopore sensor epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) was detected with high sensitivity and selectivity. Selectivity was imparted using the anti-EGFR aptamer. These devices are easy to use, require minimal processing of the sample andcan potentially be used at point-of-care.

Book Surface Engineered Biosensors for the Early Detection of Cancer

Download or read book Surface Engineered Biosensors for the Early Detection of Cancer written by Muhymin Islam and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cancer commences in the building blocks of human body which are cells. In most of the cases, it remains silent in early stage. This is expressed at molecular and cellular levels at primary stages. Recognition of disease at these micro and nano levels might reduce the mortality rate of cancer significantly. This research aimed to introduce novel electronic biosensors for identification of cancer at cellular level. First of all, the dissertation focuses on label-free isolation of metastatic tumor cells using filter based microfluidic devices. Then, nanotextured polymer substrates were implemented for enhanced cancer cell isolation and cell growth. Next, nanotextured microfluidic channel was used for electrical profiling and detection of tumor cells from blood. Finally, a biochip was developed for the detection of tumor cells by electrical profile and surface immobilized aptamer. Standard silicon processing techniques were used to fabricate all of the biosensors. Nantoextruing and surface functionalizon were incorporated to elevate the efficiency of the devices. The first approach aimed to detect cancer cells from blood based on their mechanophysical properties. Cancer cells are larger than blood cells but highly elastic in nature. These cells squeezed through microchannels much smaller than their sizes. The cross-sectional area of the microchannels was optimized to isolate tumor cells from blood. Nanotextured polymer substrates, a platform inspired from the natural basement membrane, were used to enhance the isolation and growth of tumor cells. Micro reactive ion etching was performed to have better control on features of nantoxtured surfaces. Next, electrical measurements of ionic current were performed across single microchannel to detect tumor cells from blood. Later, nanotexturing was shown to enhance the efficiency of the devices by selectively altering the translocation profile of cancer cells. Eventually, aptamer functionalized nanotextured polymer surfaces were integrated with ionic current measurements in a biochip to discriminate tumor cells from blood with higher efficiency and selectivity. These biochip concepts can be implemented in point-of-care devices for the early detection of cancer at cellular level.
