Abstract
A field effect transistor (FET)-based bio-sensing system is provided. The system comprises a sensor assembly, a light source, a fluidic pump and an electrical measurement. The sensor assembly comprising an FET chip configured with at least one fluidic channel. Wherein the fluidic channel has an inlet and an outlet, and the fluidic pump is connected to the inlet of the fluidic channel and operable to drive a fluid and/or a specimen of interest through the fluidic channel. Wherein the electrical measurement unit is connected to the sensor assembly to detect a change in the electrical characteristics of the FET chip.
