Point-of-need sensor for detection of avian influenza A (H5N1)
EF 2024-25
Résumé
A sensor that can be easily used in various environments (e.g., at home or in clinic if needed) will generated for the detection of avian influenza A (H5N1) in myriad sample matrices. The developed sensor can then be used for point-of-care detection of this virus, as well as many others. Since the technology we are developing here is easily modified for detection of other viruses and various pathogens, it is incredibly versatile, and can be easily modified if needed as the pathogen changes.
