Early Alzheimer’s Detection Sensor Could Also Diagnose Other Diseases at POC 
Currently, screening tests for Alzheimer’s disease involve a questionnaire to determine the individual’s symptoms, brain imaging, or a spinal tap process to test for biomarker proteins in the cerebral spinal fluid. Now, researchers are developing a new biosensor for detecting tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (TNF alpha) that can be used to screen for Alzheimer’s disease and other diseases. More...

First-Of-A-Kind Pan-Cancer Blood Test Could Predict Immunotherapy Efficacy and Toxicity
A first-of-a-kind pan-cancer blood test for the prediction of immunotherapy efficacy and toxicity could guide clinicians in patient selection to support the effective use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), thereby encouraging the use of ICIs in the earlier stages of cancer. More...20 Jan 2023
World’s First Test Detects Diabetics at Risk of Kidney Disease before Symptoms Appear
Researchers have identified the genetic markers for people with diabetes who are at a risk of developing kidney disease. This paves the way for the development of a test that could identify adults with Type 1 diabetes who are at a risk of kidney disease before they show any symptoms, enabling the introduction of early-stage interventions by doctors.

ELISAs Reliably Detect Anti-CCHFV Antibodies in Acute Infections
Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a life-threatening tick-borne viral disease included in the WHO priorities for research and product development for early diagnostics. EUROIMMUN (Lübeck, Germany), a PerkinElmer, Inc. (Waltham, MA; USA) company, has developed and subsequently evaluated ELISAs for the detection of specific IgM and IgG antibodies against the causative virus (CCHFV). More...19 Jan 2023
New Blood Test Tracks and Follows Neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's
A new blood test that specifically and selectively measures non-phosphorylated tau coming from the brain into the bloodstream meets an urgent unmet need for tracking neurodegenerative changes specifically in Alzheimer’s disease but not in other dementias. More...19 Jan 2023
Electrochemical Cell-Free Biosensor Directly Detects Influenza Antibodies in Blood at POC
Researchers have developed a new method for the rapid, inexpensive, yet quantitative and specific point-of-care detection of antibodies. The new method uses an electrochemical cell-free biosensor that can directly detect antibodies against diseases such as influenza in blood serum. More...18 Jan 2023
Highly Accurate Test "Fishes" For Respiratory Viruses Using DNA as Bait
A new test uses single strands of DNA as ‘bait’ to ‘fish’ for multiple respiratory viruses at once and delivers accurate results in less than an hour. The new approach tests for multiple viruses at once, allowing the right treatment to be administered quickly to the patients and minimizing the unwarranted use of antibiotics. More...17 Jan 2023
