biočip
An electronic device that uses organic molecules to form a semiconductor; a microchip that uses tiny strands of DNA to latch onto and quickly recognize thousands of genes at a time; collection of miniaturized test sites (microarrays) arranged on a solid substrate that permits many tests to be performed at the same time in order to achieve higher throughput and speed. A biochip can perform thousands of biological reactions, such as decoding genes, in a few seconds. Biochips can also be used to rapidly detect chemical agents used in biological warfare so that defensive measures can be taken.
