Biosensor permits ultra-fast and low-cost detection of SARS-CoV-2
Publicado em 11 agosto 2021The challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic have stimulated innovation on a number of fronts. One is the event of low-cost strategies of medical prognosis. Genosensors are a living proof. Based on nucleic acids that detect easy complementary DNA or RNA sequences, genosensors are biosensors that make potential mass testing for rapid and delicate testing of genetic materials. A tool of this sort, already proven to be environment friendly in detecting SARS-CoV-2, has simply been produced in [...]ver notícia -
