Magnetoresistive Biochips
Introduction
Research in this area in the past three
years progressed in 6 areas, respectively 1-Cystic Fiobrosis gene chips ( within
the CF chip FP5 project), 2-A Cystic Fibrosis SNIP detection platform (
SNIP2CHIP FP6 project), 3-A matrix based 256 probe chip( MTJ + diode)
4-portable biochip prototype fabrication ( including all control electronics),
5-A Stem Cell separation and diferentiation Lab on Chip, 6-Biochips using the
Planar Hall effect, and 7-Lateral flow biochip platforms.
