Abstract
The landscape of biosensing technologies has undergone a significant transformation, with a particular emphasis on instant screening tests (ISTs) tailored for home and community settings. These tests play a crucial role in enabling rapid detection, monitoring, and management of a varied range of health conditions, including infectious diseases, chronic illnesses, and environmental exposures. This letter provides a brief exploration of the various key aspects of biosensing methodologies and technologies designed to address the unique challenges and opportunities inherent in ISTs. By exploring crucial advancements and emerging trends, it highlights the transformative potential of these innovations in enhancing healthcare accessibility and empowering individuals to take proactive control of their well-being.
生物传感技术的面貌发生了重大转变,重点尤其放在为家庭和社区环境量身定制的即时筛查测试 (IST)上。这些测试在快速检测、监测和管理各种健康状况(包括传染病、慢性病和环境暴露)方面发挥着至关重要的作用。本信简要探讨了生物传感方法和技术的各个关键方面,这些方法和技术旨在应对 IST 固有的独特挑战和机遇。通过探讨关键的进展和新兴趋势,它强调了这些创新技术在提高医疗保健可及性和增强个人主动控制自身健康的能力方面所具有的变革潜力。
