Biosensing platform detects Covid-19 antibodies in seconds
Nearly pain-free microneedle patch can test for antibodies and more in the fluid between cells
Researchers have succeeded in ‘fine tuning’ a new thermoplastic biomaterial to enable both the rate at which it degrades in the body and its mechanical properties to be controlled independently
Tiny devices use samples taken directly from patients to combine in vivo and in vitro testing
Implantable silicon-based electronics could monitor nitric oxide species directly at the source, and then biodegrade
Device manufactured using near-field nanolithography is the first functional hard drive made from silk proteins
Inspired by a parasitic worm that digs its sharp teeth into its host’s intestines, researchers have designed tiny, star-shaped microdevices that can latch onto intestinal mucosa and release drugs into the body
