Charge Detector And Process For Sensing A Charged Analyte

Patent Number: 11,493,476

Problem

A micrograph of a dual gate field effect transistor.

It is time for precision biochemical measurements in a format that combines inexpensive passive sensors that can be customized for specific applications with reusable electronics.

Invention

We developed a modular bioelectronics measurement platform that allows for easily interchangeable measurements, which can allow the diagnosis of multiple diseases. 

Potential Commercial Applications

  • Disease diagnostics
  • Early warning systems for public health

Competitive Advantage

  • Our modular approach allows flexibility to rapidly reconfigure the sensors for new and emerging applications.
  • Allows rapid measurements in a handheld form factor and provides a route for developing several inexpensive disposable sensors that can be read with a single reader.
