Researchers have developed a low-cost smartphone accessory that can perform a point-of-care test that simultaneously detects three infectious disease markers from a finger prick of blood in just 15 minutes. The team was led by Samuel K. Sia, associate professor of biomedical engineering at Columbia Engineering. The device replicates, for the first time, all mechanical, optical and electronic functions of a lab-based blood test. Specifically, it performs an enzyme-linked ...Sunday, 1 March 2015
