摘要
Since 2020,the global outbreak and continued evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic have brought the concepts of nucleic acid,antigen-antibody,gene sequencing,and other biochemical testing into ordinary families.In this regard,novel semiconductor-biochemical sensors that convert biochemical information into monitorable electrical and optical signals according to specific rules have become increasingly important and indispensable.These sensors deeply fuse the technical advantages of semiconductors and biochemistry,integrating interdisciplinary subjects such as molecular biology,nanomaterials,microfluidics,artificial intelligence(AI),etc.With the advantages of fast speed,high sensitivity,high integration,easy mass manufacturing,the novel technologies are the"pioneer"of biomedical information acquisition and the"heart"of modern medical diagnostic equipment.Currently,the technologies are showing a spurt of development,with new products emerging,new functions being developed,and new application scenarios being expanded.The research hotspots cover a wide range,including immediate detection,non-invasive analysis,wearable devices,on-site monitoring,etc.This issue looks at the latest advances in the novel technologies for physiological dynamic monitoring of animals/plants and rapid detection of highly pathogenic pathogens,while covering applications in agriculture,fisheries,animal husbandry,biosecurity,and wearable medicine.
