Microwave Sensor System for Biologically Significant Antigens Detection (Review)

The possibility of combining recognizing (sensitive) biological components with various converters creates a huge variety of biosensor systems. A promising direction is to develop biosensors based on microwave resonators. The operation of microwave sensors is based on a change in the resonant frequency of an electromagnetic resonator upon contact with the biological object under study. This review shows the possibilities of microwave sensor systems and discusses the various analytic options in the determination of biomolecules by using antibiotics and disease markers, including glucose and antibodies, as examples. The presented results show the promise of microwave sensor systems for biomolecule determination and for their further use in biomedicine.
