Smartphone Microscopic Method Detects Cryptosporidium and Giardia
Food and water-borne illness arising from the consumption of contaminated food and water are serious health hazards globally. Cryptosporidium and Giardia are the major food and water‒borne parasites. The infection occurs mainly by (oo)cyst phase of the parasites. More...30 Sep 2020
Microfluidic Label-Free Bioprocessing of Reticulocytes from Erythroid Culture
Blood transfusions save millions of lives every year, but over half the world's countries do not have sufficient blood supply to meet their needs. The ability to manufacture red blood cells (RBCs) on demand, especially the universal donor blood (O+), would significantly benefit those in need of transfusion. More...30 Sep 2020

Paper-Based Microneedle Skin Patch for Continuous Glucose Monitoring
A microneedle skin patch for the continuous monitoring of an individual’s glucose level was designed to be a painless and disposable screening and diagnostic test for diabetes patients, as well as those with pre-diabetes. More...23 Sep 2020
