In addition, 200 μL 25, 50, 100 pg mL−1 and 1 ng mL−1 nucleocapsid protein were also tested using the commercial kits (COVID-19 Ag Test Kit), which work as reference. 3. Results and discussions 3.1. Design of FRET-based S protein detection nanoprobe The design and scheme of ...
I watched a demo, in the same conference (eek), of a chat bot that had been put in place to help gather more details about how people were coping during lockdown due to COVID 19. What was very interesting to me (other than I manage to stop myself from screaming at the screen) wa...
When consumers think about making a habit of indulging in a temptation, they find it easier to resist, because the costs become apparent. The lure of grocery delivery Source: RODNAE Productions/Pexels Even before theCOVID-19pandemic started, online grocery delivery skyrocketed. Many of us ...
To keep up with our healthcare needs, it is crucial to develop a rapid point-of-care test to detect potential carriers of COVID-19 and those who have recovered as disease dynamics change at the speed of its spread [1]. While the gold standard technique for the diagnosis of the initial...
9. Performance of the QD-Based LFIA as a POC Test for COVID-19 Detection The performance of quantum dot-based lateral flow immunoassays (QD-based LFIA) has emerged as a promising point-of-care testing method for detecting COVID-19, offering several notable advantages in the battle against ...
While I had a lot of buy-in and ambitious goals for hiring a bigger team, I knew it’s not always easy to hire, especially during COVID. The ROI on in-person or online events has decreased a lot. Unlike many other DevRel teams that spend most of their budget traveling and attending...
(WHO), including the current COVID-19 pandemic. Early diagnosis is critical in epidemic management because it allows speedy implementation of containment measures to limit the likelihood of amplification and international transmission. (Cucinotta et al.2020). Several electrochemical methods based on ...

The pathogen and pNC interact through non-covalent interactions such as electrostatic and hydrogen bonding; the antibody further captures the complex at the test line, forming a pNC-bacteria–antibody sandwich complex. The novel lateral flow immunoassay system developed was label-free and straightforward...
In the last few years with the pandemic outbreak, wearing face masks has been recognized by the Word Health Organization (WHO) as the main form of protection to prevent any risk of infection from coronavirus disease (COVID-19) [1,2,3]. The ability of the virus to coalesce with both lar...
