Researchers have developed an optical biosensor that detects the virus that causes mpox. The technology could make diagnosis much faster and cost-effective as the disease continues to spread worldwide ...

Traditional plasmonic biosensors rely on bulky optical setups. A semiconductor chip packed with tiny lasers hints at a far more compact sensing architecture ...

Swedish researchers have developed diminutive laser technology with the potential to move certain types of medical sampling ...

Monkeypox is a growing current health concern, with a potentially fatal variant of human mpox spreading across certain African countries, and a different non-lethal variant also now being observed ...

Patent covers pristine graphene–based biosensor technology to translate protease activity into measurable optical ...

A research team at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, has developed new laser technology that could lead to tiny, ...

Porous silicon (PSi) has emerged as a highly versatile material for biosensing and optical applications, owing to its high internal surface area, tunable pore sizes and exceptional optical properties.

A telecommunications engineer of the NUP/UPNA-Public University of Navarre, has designed in his Ph.D. thesis optical resonance-based biosensors for use in medical applications like, for example, the ...

Biosensing has been valuable for detecting biomolecules, including novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), but achieving both high sensitivity and rapidity has been challenging. Rapid and high-sensitivity ...

A new variant of human mpox has claimed the lives of approximately 5% of people with reported infections in the Democratic Republic of the Congo since 2023, many of them children. Since then, it has ...
