Abstrakt: A recent study conducted by researchers at the University of California has developed a portable graphene biosensor that can detect biomarkers associated with degenerative brain diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. The biosensor, which utilizes DNA aptamer nanoprobes, demonstrated high sensitivity and precision in detecting amyloid proteins associated with these diseases. The researchers believe that this portable diagnostic system has the potential to enable at-home and point-of-care testing for neurodegenerative diseases globally. [Extracted from the article]
