Abstract

Abstract : A biosensing system is commercialized based on a concept of physiological balance for healthcare. The addition of low-cost biochemical sensors to the sensing system would help with scientific prescriptions based on contemporary medicine. As a candidate for a low-cost and robust chemical sensor platform, the ion-sensitive field-effect transistor (ISFET) has long been examined. After reviewing past ISFET research, our two approaches for new business trials are discussed. One approach is based on the progressiveness of technology that relies on a public finance with existing big companies. Another approach is a lean startup based on a customer development model for entrepreneurs.
