Nanoink Printed Amperometric Immunosensor for Rapid and Inexpensive Screening of Tuberculosis
Abstract
Use of insensitive screening methods for tuberculosis (TB) increases burden in cost and medical treatment for the US Army. The use of nanocomponents has shown great potential for high-performance, low-cost biosensing applications. However, the development of reliable and highly reproducible fabrication methods has been a major issue. The goal of the proposed research is to develop and validate a novel carbon nanotube sensor using a novel capillary-pen printing technique. This biosensing platform will enable rapid and convenient screening of TB, which can be applied for other disease screening and diagnostics with minor modification.
