Nanomechanical Sensors as a Tool for Bacteria Detection and Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing

Nanomechanical biosensors refer to a subfamily of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) consisting of movable suspended microstructures able to convert biological processes into measurable mechanical motion. Owing to this, nanomechanical biosensors have become a promising technology in the way to d...
