Biochip technology allows thousands of biological tests to be performed simultaneously on a surface area smaller than a fingernail. A biochip contains miniaturized test sites arranged on a solid substrate that can analyze genes and other biomolecules quickly. It works by concentrating genetic tests on a small area so they can be analyzed by computer in a short time, making individual tests cheaper while allowing more tests to be conducted. A biochip is made up of a microchip containing identification information, an antenna coil, capacitor, and glass capsule that together allow it to transmit its ID to a scanner wirelessly.
