Sections cover the key elements of LFAs before delving into a range of different LFA types, including aptamer-based and SERS-based LFAs. Applications across the biosciences and beyond are explored, such as virus detection, including Covid-19, bacteria detection, hormonal detection and cancer biomarkers. LFAs for the detection of narcotics, environmental pollutants, food additives, allergens, toxins and metabolites are also explored. The book then discusses the commercialization aspects of LFAs before looking at future developments.
This book offers a complete overview of these biosensors and is an ideal reference for researchers and lab technicians across the biomedical sciences who work with these devices. It is also relevant to researchers and practitioners in food chemistry, the environmental industry, and pharmaceutical companies, in addition to those involved in the development of lateral flow devices.
- Explores the use of lateral flow assays in a range of biomedical areas, including viral and bacterial detection, hormonal change, and disease biomarkers
- Considers the application of lateral flow assays in other fields, such as detection of narcotics, environmental pollutants, and in food analysis
- Studies nanoparticle utilization and their role in lateral flow assays
- Presents future prospects for lateral flow assays
Researchers and lab technicians across the biomedical sciences including biochemistry, biotechnology and pharmacology, Researchers in food analysis, environmental industry, and pharmaceutical industry along with other end users of lateral flow devices, Clinicians, Postgraduate students across biomedical sciences
