Abstract :

In recent years, diagnostic screening has drawn increasing attention. The advantages of BioMEMS technology include low fabrication cost, low sample consumption, and a rapid reaction rate suitable for point-of-care testing. Processing samples and reagents in array form could provide a breakthrough for clinical medicine and drug delivery development. Many studies have been conducted on the microprobe for biological applications, but most of them, such as the work of Professor Wise's team, focused solely on electrode probes for electrophysiology applications. However, attention to treatment requirements and microprobe design with flow channels is preferable. It has the capacity for drug delivery; furthermore, it is superior in long-term medicine injections and medicine gradient generation.
