Biochips
Definition
Biochip is a set of diminished microarrays that are placed on a strong substrate that allows many experiments to be executed at the same time to obtain a high throughput in less time. This device contains millions of sensor elements or biosensors. Not like microchips, these are not electronic devices. Each and every biochip can be considered as a microreactor that can detect a particular analyte like an enzyme, protein, DNA, biological molecule or antibody. The main function of this chip is to perform hundreds of biological reactions in a few seconds like decoding genes (a sequence of DNA)
1.Experiments:
The introduction enlightens us about the current situation that we are living by implying that biochips and microchips are already present and our daily life as a first argument. His second one was to emphasize the upside that those technologies could have on our daily lives: Universal card, E-Wallet, IOT smart home setups and more, a universal ticket for transports, cybersecurity and much more
The first article covers the Sweden experience where they were the first European…
