Biosensors for Virus Detection
Biosensors for virus detection by Adil Denizli and Yeseren Saylan, Bristol, IOP Publishing, 2021, 184 pp., Hardcover, ISBN 9780750338677.
Scope: textbook. Level: advanced undergraduate, postgraduate, researcher, scientist.
Viruses are non-living entities that replicate in host organ- isms and are capable of causing serious diseases. Virus detection is very crucial since viruses have been causing a lot of problems and losses all over the world. Not only affect the deadly health problems like Ebola virus, Marburg virus, HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus), Zika virus, SARSCOV, and so on, the virus outbreak can also have an adverse impact on the political, social, and economic sectors of the country. To address these challenges, advanced biosensor platforms are essential for detecting the presence of viruses, facilitating appropriate prevention and treatment.
