| Researchers at Purdue University have developed a new method to detect enveloped bacteria and viruses. High-accuracy virus/bacteria-detection methods such as PCR require DNA amplification and are time-consuming. On the other hand, the Purdue technology rapidly detects small amounts of the RNA released when the viral/bacterial envelope is compromised under high-temperature conditions. This technology uses single-stranded DNA primers specific to a virus/bacterial strain, coated between layers of graphene and a flexible polymeric substrate. This device can be used as a platform of point-of-care testing for enveloped bacteria and viruses. Advantages - Rapid - Point-of-care testing - Non-invasive Applications - Platform of point-of-care testing for enveloped viruses and bacteria |
