A bio-sensing device (100) suitable for the detection and/or characterization of target bioparticles, such as biological cells, and corresponding method is described. The bio-sensing technique is based on the impact on the heat transfer resistivity value of bioparticles binding in binding cavities of a structured substrate, such as substrates coated by molecularly imprinted polymers. By sensing temperatures and determining a heat transfer resistivity value based thereon, a characteristic of the target bioparticles can be derived. |
