BioMEMS Devices

BioMEMS Devices covers the fundamentals of bioMEMS and discusses how MEMS are implemented into biomedical devices. The book discusses the most up-to-date technologies, including the various types of electrochemical, optical, and mechanical MEMS sensors. Other topics include bio cell and particle separation and filtration using microfluidic platform such as dielectrophoresis (DEP) and microfilters. MEMS devices for drug mixing, pumping and transdermal drug delivery using microneedles and micropumps are also discussed, along with recent advances in point-of-care diagnostics and MEMS in medical implants

The book concludes with a discussion on integration of bioMEMS system with IoT, medical practitioners’ adaptation of the devices, market penetration, emerging technologies, and future outlooks.
