Note: The biological bio chip has different probes such as DNA, RNAi, protein fragments, etc., which are indicated by a dot on the chip.
These probes connect to the targets in the test sample. Due to hybridization, contact is made between the probes and their target. Biochip scanners and microarray image analysis software are then used to identify the target and quantify the signal. The results are obtained at the statistical level and are interpreted in a biological context.
Antenna coil - very basic and small for sending and receiving signals from the scanner.
Computer Microchip - This stores a unique identification number of 10-15 digits.
Adjusting Capacitor - Charged with a very small signal sent by the operator.
Glass capsule - made of a biocompatible material, especially soda lime glass. Used to hold the antenna coil, capacitor and microchip.
Reader: This includes a coil called an exciter that is used to generate an electromagnetic field (emf) with the help of radio signals. Provides the energy needed to create the chip.
A bio chip is a small version of a laboratory that uses more than hundreds of biochemical reactions simultaneously. They are specifically designed to function in a biological environment, especially within living organisms. This is not an electronic device. Biochips are made up of millions of biosensors that are used as micro-reactors to detect specific analytes such as enzymes, proteins, biological molecules and antibodies . The biological bio chip has different probes such as DNA, RNAi, protein fragments, etc., which are indicated by a dot on the chip.
