Quartz Crystal Resonators are devices with high capabilities in sensing systems due to their accuracy, efficiency and low cost. In this work we present a prototype of biosensor based on the use of QCR with the objective of measure the viscosity of small samples of biological fluids for medical diagnosis. In order to observe the response of the system in a biomedical application, two artificial fluids were developed for simulate healthy and pathological fluids. These measurements were compared with a professional viscometer to observe the similarity between both measurement methods. These tests may be used to observe the viability of the device and to calibrate the system before testing with real fluids.
