Differential immuno-capture technology enabled disposable biochip for quick HIV diagnosis
Q. New disposable biochip for quick HIV diagnosis has been developed which is based on- Published on 17 Mar 16a. Differential immuno-capture technology
b. Transformational immuno-capture technology
c. Sensitive Immuno-capture Technology
d. Immuno-capture PCR technology
ANSWER: Differential immuno-capture technology
- Scientists have developed a new highly sensitive biosensor that can quickly and accurately count sub-populations of white blood cells that are a key to diagnose HIV/AIDS.
- The biosensor is based on a differential immuno-capture technology.
- As part of a small, disposable biochip, the microfluidic biosensor can count CD4+/CD8+ T cells quickly and accurately for AIDS diagnosis in the field.
- Scientists have developed a microfluidic biosensor based on a differential immuno-capture electrical cell counting technology to enumerate specific cells in 20 minutes using 10 microlitres of blood.
