Nanofluidic Pre-Concentration Devices for Enhancing the Detection Sensitivity and Selectivity of Biomarkers for Human Performance Monitoring

Abstract

Towards enhancing the detection sensitivity of biomarkers for real-time human performance monitoring in bio-fluid media the researchers have developed nano-device platforms for pre-concentration, separation and enhancement of binding kinetics of target species to sensing elements. They will apply these methods to key biomarkers in year 2.
