Building better gas-phase biosensors for fight against diseases - EurekAlert

TDMU and Waseda University researchers embedded enzymes directly into polymer fibers to easily create biosensors for volatile compounds. They found that the fluorescence increased when exposed to target molecules, which can make point-of-care diagnostics and …
