biochip

listen to the pronunciation of biochip
İngilizce - İngilizce
An identification chip fitted into the flesh of an animal
A microchip made from biological macromolecules (especially DNA) rather than a semiconductor
a microchip that uses tiny strands of DNA to latch onto and quickly recognize thousands of genes at a time; intended for use in a biological environment
{i} electronic chip that uses organic molecules as a semiconductor (currently used in DNA testing and under development for many other applications)
Small-scale device, analogous to an integrated circuit, constructed of or used to analyze organic molecules associated with living organisms. One type of theoretical biochip is a small device constructed of large organic molecules, such as proteins, and capable of performing the functions (data storage, processing) of an electronic computer. The other type of biochip is a small device capable of performing rapid, small-scale biochemical reactions for the purpose of identifying gene sequences, environmental pollutants, airborne toxins, or other biochemical constituents
