Claim:
1. A system for detecting a biological material or a reaction associated with said biological material, comprising: a support; a sensor array comprising a sensor that includes a plurality of electrodes that provides an electrical current flow path for detecting signals indicative of a change of impedance only within a Debye length associated with said support, said support comprising said biological material coupled thereto, wherein said plurality of electrodes detects said signals (i) while said biological material is coupled to said support or (ii) during said reaction associated with said biological material, and wherein during use, said plurality of electrodes is exposed to a solution comprising said biological material coupled to said support; and a detection module that detects said biological material or said reaction associated with said biological material based on said signals detected by said plurality of electrodes, which signals are indicative of said change of impedance within said Debye length associated with said support.
