Abstract
A biosensor is a tool that quantitatively determines the disturbance in the homeostatic equilibrium in a system in an extremely low concentration in the healthcare sector, such as diagnosis, treatment, and mitigation. Biosensors utilize specific biomarkers to aid in an accurate diagnosis based on its sensitivity, reproducibility, biocompatibility, and robustness, which has several advantages over conventional diagnosis, including onsite diagnosis in less time. This article covers various techniques involved in the pretreatment of the cell to modify certain bioreceptors, types of transducers, and their wide arena of application. Cells for biosensors are often labeled with certain enzymes or secondary substances producing an intensifying response of intrinsic signal transduction. The efficacy of a single mini device had attracted the attention of many researchers to aid in the early diagnosis of life-threatening diseases. Although enhancement in the performance of biosensor of cell has been going on, it has provided a gateway to next-generation approaches ...
