The point-of-care (POC) market is facing an increased need for mass volume solutions to generalize patient monitoring. In a recent article written by Linxens experts, Youssef Ben M'Barek, Innovation Engineer, and Simon Vassal, Innovation Manager, Linxens, explains how the company can meet the POC market’s increased need for high-capacity solutions for patient monitoring thanks to its reel-to-reel manufacturing capabilities and the development of advanced qualitative transceiver solutions for electrochemical strips.

The Linxens electrodes’ response signal is stable and well-defined and demonstrates great reversibility and stability over cycling in the presence of Ferrocene Methanol. In blanks, a stable signal is obtained between -0.3 to + 0.3 V vs Ag/AgCl in PBS, and between -0.3 V to 1.5 V vs Ag/AgCl in PB.

BiosensorsBiosensors are devices used to detect an analyte using biological molecules specific to the analyte coupled to a detector. Biosensor instruments may be photometric, typically using surface plasma resonance (SPR), electrochemical or QCM (quartz crystal microbalance) biosensors. Biosensors should be selective, portable, robust and sensitive and have a fast response time. Systems may be manual or automated and usually have associated software.Point-of-CarePoint-of-Care Testing (POCT) or Near Patient Testing (NPT) products are available for urine, blood and other clinical chemistry analyses. POCT includes: blood glucose testing, blood gas and electrolytes analysis, rapid coagulation testing (PT / INR), rapid cardiac markers diagnostics, drugs of abuse screening, urine strips testing, pregnancy testing, fecal occult blood analysis, food pathogens screening, hemoglobin diagnostics, infectious disease testing and cholesterol screening.BiomarkersBiomarkers are biological markers which can be measured and evaluated to indicate a biological state. The use of biomarkers in research and diagnosis can indicate a normal or disease state or drug response of cells / tissues. Biomarkers include genetic markers, cell surface markers such as antigens, antibodies or receptors and secreted molecules such as cytokines. An assay system is required for identification of biomarkers. :Point of Care SolutionsPoint of care solutions provide medical diagnostics and treatments at or near the site of patient care. These technologies offer rapid results, helping healthcare providers make quick decisions. From glucose monitors to molecular diagnostics, point of care solutions are transforming healthcare delivery by reducing wait times and improving patient outcomes. Explore the best point of care products in our peer-reviewed product directory, compare options, check reviews, and get pricing directly from manufacturers.AACCThe American Association for Clinical Chemistry (AACC) Annual Meeting and Clinical Lab Expo is the largest meeting for clinical laboratory professionals in the world.
