Abstract
The panorama of urgent testing needs has driven the demand for Point-of-Care (POC) diagnostic systems enabling the sensitive detection of pathogens and biomarkers at extremely low concentrations and providing instant results under a cost-effective scheme. Considering the technological maturity that has been achieved so far, at both fabrication and application levels, lab-on-fiber technology has the potential to significantly impact the technological roadmap toward advanced POC applications, though the development of the fundamental technological pillars at the basis of next-generation of POCs. The aim of this chapter is to present the current evolution and perspectives of lab-on-fiber optrodes toward advanced and multifunctional POC platforms.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
