Abstract
A biosensor includes a microfluidics layer, a transduction layer and a transceiver layer. The transduction layer further includes a functionalized layer that reacts with a biomarker, and a plurality of carbon nanotubes adjacent the functionalized layer. The conductivity of the carbon nanotubes changes in response to a biomarker reacting with at least a portion of the functionalized layer. The functionalized layer can include dendrimers, such as a tadpole dendrimer scaffolding that includes a plurality of sites for receiving receptors for biomarkers.
