New multiplexed electrical biosensor for accurate detection of Alzheimer’s disease

February 11, 2020

A research team at KAIST reported clinically accurate multiplexed electrical biosensor for detecting Alzheimer’s disease by measuring its core biomarkers using densely aligned carbon nanotubes.

Alzheimer’s disease is the most prevalent neurodegenerative disorder, affecting one in ten aged over 65 years.
