Allergens Screening Tool: Portable Fluorescence Biosensing Reader

The device is a tool for measurements of specific IgE-mediated fluorescence responses in serum samples, indicating the likelihood of an allergic response to different allergens deposited in a microfluidic device.

Features:

  • Miniaturized tool (20x smaller than commercial reader solution)
  • Cost-effective (40x lower considering current components)
  • Automated data analysis (user-friendly software and interface)
  • Multiplexed and custom allergen deposition”
