Abstract :
Highly sensitive methods which are fast and accurate are essential for detecting analytes in biosensing applications. Microcantilevers serves as an ideal choice for a DNA sensor due to their ease of fabrication and low cost involved. This paper discusses the design of a high performance cantilever based DNA sensor along with its modelling to obtain optimum sensitivity.
