Traditional ELISA methods are highly sensitive, but they require multiple steps of adding antibodies, washing, and adding enzymatic substrates. The complexity of ELISA assays also requires technicians and/or expensive laboratory equipment.
Stanford researchers have designed a electrochemical sensor system for continuous analyte measurement and tracking in complex biological samples (i.e. blood and serum) with a wide range of clinical and non clinical applications.
Stanford researchers have developed a library of polymeric hydrogel formulations to prevent and/or reduce biofouling on implanted sensors and medical devices.
