  • Publication number: 20090191616
    Abstract: A biosensor structure and a method for fabricating the same are described. The biosensor structure for detecting at least a single cell includes a substrate with an insulating surface, a conductive layer and a plurality of capture molecules. The conductive layer is disposed on the substrate, and has a first pattern and a second pattern separated from each other. The first pattern includes a plurality of first finger configurations, and the second pattern includes a plurality of second finger configurations, so as to form interdigitated array. The capture molecules are immobilized on the conductive layer, such that the cell that is bound specifically to the capture molecules on two adjacent first and second finger configurations is detected. The biosensor structure is feasible for real-time (<3 min), specific, and quantitative targeted cell detection down to a single cell.
