Smart Intraocular Lens Inserted into the Eye Detects Biomarkers for Alzheimer's
Scientists have developed a smart intraocular lens that can be inserted into the eye to detect biomarkers for Alzheimer's, a degenerative brain disease, and could facilitate early diagnosis of various other neurological diseases. More...13 Jan 2023
Hand-Held POC Biosensor Quickly and Accurately Detects Oral Cancer
Researchers have developed a breakthrough hand-held biosensor that enables quick and accurate detection of oral cancer. The team is now looking forward to demonstrating their integrated solution for cancer and other disease detection via a hand-held point-of-care device with a short detection time and low detection limit. More...14 Dec 2022
Infrared Signature For Mobile Phone Detects Malaria
Optical microscopy, rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) and molecular tests are the three main diagnostic techniques currently available for malaria diagnosis. Microscopy is the traditional way of detecting malaria parasites in stained thick or thin peripheral blood films using Giemsa, Wrights or Fields stains. More...13 Dec 2022
Electronic Nose Accurately Diagnoses Prostate Tumor Using Urine Sample
The diagnosis of prostate cancer using a non-invasive method and with greater accuracy than traditional diagnostic procedures is ever closer to becoming a reality. This has been confirmed by the data in a study which tested the efficacy of the first prototype of an electronic nose that can identify the presence of a tumor from a urine sample, by recognizing specific volatile molecules. More...05 Dec 2022
Novel Digital Morphology Analyzer Performance Evaluated
Microscopic examination of peripheral blood smear (PBS) is essential in clinical hematology laboratories. Manual counting is, however, inefficient because the process is technically demanding and labor-intensive resulting in long turnaround time (TAT), and the results may be subjective with inter-observer variation. More...01 Dec 2022
