The diagnosis of disease has high technical requirements and is very expensive and time consuming, which is a challenge for patients in low-income areas and remote areas. Currently, a study published in the journal ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces shows that portable blood glucose monitoring, which uses simple detection equipment, can detect other diseases with practicality and low cost. Features.
There are many benefits to quickly diagnose a disease. Treatment should begin as soon as possible, which will bring the best results to the patient, while also saving time and money. It also reduces the anxiety of patients waiting for results. But achieving rapid diagnosis through current technology does not seem feasible. However, one study found that monitoring the patient's blood glucose through a medical device can quickly yield test results. Based on the research, scientists began to explore the response of blood sugar to other substances, such as cocaine or Salmonella in milk. But at present, the blood glucose testing methods used by researchers are still very complicated and time consuming. Chaoyong James Yang and his colleagues wanted to find a simpler method of detection and apply this method to the detection of disease biomarkers.
The tiny spherical pocket, the liposome, has attracted the attention of researchers, and the liposome is coated with an enzyme that produces glucose. In the presence of the target molecule, the liposome will burst automatically, resulting in an increase in blood glucose levels, which will ultimately lead to disease detection through blood glucose levels. Researchers have tried to encapsulate thrombin with liposomes, a protein that reflects blood flow or heart disease. At present, people can accurately detect the blood glucose content through the instrument, and the blood sugar level is closely related to the amount of thrombin. In addition, the researchers say the method can be used to detect other protein-related diseases.
