About

Over the span of a few years, the lab has developed nonenzymatic glucose sensing strips and glucometer, in addition to several non-enzymatic electrochemical biosensors for the quantification of creatinine, bilirubin, cholesterol, uric acid, chloride and pesticides. Electrochemical immunosensors for the highly selective and sensitive detection of various cancer biomarkers based on signal amplification strategies have also been developed. The sensors are integrated with microfluidics and microelectronics to develop Lab-on-a-chip devices for Point-of-Care testing applications. Highly sensitive impedemetric sensors integrated lab-on-a-chip device for point-of-care detection of bacteria was also successfully developed and tested. The lab also focuses on developing paper-based diagnostic devices based on colourimetric assays for the simple and direct visual analysis of different metabolites and proteins. Paper-based diagnostic devices for the liver function test and the early detection of osteoporosis were developed.
