Biosensors for Single-Cell Analysis explores a wide range of biosensor technologies and their applications in single-cell characterization and analysis. Sections cover key biophysical and chemical single-cell properties that consider proteomic, metabolic, electrical, mechanical and optical properties. Each chapter features key definitions and case studies, providing detailed guidance for researchers who want to replicate covered solutions in their work. Tutorial sections, evaluations of the current state-of-the-field and future developments are also included. Microfluidic approaches to characterization, such as microfluidic impedance flow cytometry and microfluidic flow cytometry are considered alongside more conventional approaches, such as mass spectroscopy, fluorescent and mass flow cytometry.
Additionally, key types of biosensors are covered, including atomic force microscopy, micropipette aspiration, optical tweezers, microfluidic hydrodynamic stretchers, microfluidic constriction channel and microfluidic optical stretchers.
