Technical Name Microfluidic Sensing System for On-Site Rapid Detection of Acute Kidney Injury Biomarker
Project Operator National Tsing Hua University
Project Host 洪健中
Summary
This product provides "Microfluidic sensing system for on-site rapid detection of early-stage acute kidney injury" for the hospital's intensive care unit, operating room, nephrology departmentcardiology department. It can replace the lengthycumbersome traditional instrumentationeasily access at the point of care.
Scientific Breakthrough
The technology combines a disposable blood filter sensing chip, a molecular imprinting technology (bionic plastic antibody), a vacuum module,a microbead blood cell filtering device. This technique allows clinicians to early diagnose acute kidney injury. Compared with the current ELISA method, the accuracy is similar,it is fastercheaper.
Industrial Applicability
This portabledisposable integrated chip takes only a drop of finger-tip blood10 minutes to quickly, easilyaccurately detect early kidney damage. Therefore, this technique enables clinicians to diagnose golden 48 hours for salvage kidneyavoid life-long dialysismultiorgan failure.
