Abstract "Fast, inexpensive, and multiplexed detection of multiple nucleic acids is of great importance to human health, yet it still represents a significant challenge. Herein, we propose a nucleic acid testing platform, named MiCaR, which couples a microfluidic device with CRISPR-Cas12a and multiplex recombinase polymerase amplification....
Axons play a major role in the transmission of neuronal signals along the central nervous system. Dysfunction or degeneration of these neurons is seen in many neurodegenerative diseases as well as spinal cord injuries for many of which no cure has been found yet....
Prostate cancer being one of the major causing death in men has been the focus of attention for many researchers around the world. Early diagnostics of this type of cancer can significantly increase the chance of survival. Therefore, many efforts have been made to...
In addition to being an effective means of thermoregulation for the body, sweat can be a valuable source for non-invasive analysis of body physiology. The sweat rate, for example, can reflect health conditions such as nerve damage, metabolic disorders, etc. Despite its significance, several factors...
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) occurs when the head experiences a violent hit and can cause disruption in regular brain activity1. Similar to many other diseases, early diagnosis of TBI can prevent progression towards irreversible damages. This is further highlighted in patients with unclear or minor...
