  • Title: Biosensors for hepatitis B virus detection.
    Author: Yao CY, Fu WL.
    Journal: World J Gastroenterol; 2014 Sep 21; 20(35):12485-92. PubMed ID: 25253948.
    Abstract:
    A biosensor is an analytical device used for the detection of analytes, which combines a biological component with a physicochemical detector. Recently, an increasing number of biosensors have been used in clinical research, for example, the blood glucose biosensor. This review focuses on the current state of biosensor research with respect to efficient, specific and rapid detection of hepatitis B virus (HBV). The biosensors developed based on different techniques, including optical methods (e.g., surface plasmon resonance), acoustic wave technologies (e.g., quartz crystal microbalance), electrochemistry (amperometry, voltammetry and impedance) and novel nanotechnology, are also discussed.
