Scientists from Northwestern University have collaborated on the implementation of an accurate, low-cost and easy-to-use test for detecting toxic levels of fluoride in water. The new biosensor device developed at Northwestern has been field…

New research from Binghamton University, State University of New York offers a second life for CDs: Turn them into flexible biosensors that are inexpensive and easy to manufacture. In a paper published this month in Nature Communications,…

Demand for sensitive and selective electronic biosensors -- analytical devices that monitor a target of interest in real time -- is growing for a wide range of applications. They are ideal for health care within clinical settings, drug…

A novel carbon-based biosensor developed at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) is set to drive new innovations in brain-controlled robotics. Developed by Professor Francesca Iacopi and her team in the UTS Faculty of Engineering and…

Remote monitoring of health-related behaviour with wearable sensor technology is feasible for people with complex health conditions, shows a recent University of Waterloo study. "Information from wearables can provide insight into patterns…

Detecting the activity of CRISPR gene editing tools in organisms with the naked eye and an ultraviolet flashlight is now possible using technology developed at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Scientists…

They say you are what you wear. New biosensor technology created at the University of Utah's College of Engineering makes that even more true. Chemical engineering assistant professor Huanan Zhang has developed a process that turns clothing…

Bioelectrical sensors on the skin can be used to measure electrical signals in the body, like heart activity and muscle contraction. While that provides valuable information for clinicians, current bioelectrical sensor technology can be…
