Detecting Nerve Agents with Finger Touch from a Lab-on-a-Glove
The new wearable, flexible glove biosensor carries out the sampling and electrochemical biosensing steps on different fingers, with the thumb finger used for collecting the nerve-agent residues and an enzyme immobilized on the index finger. The researchers created stretchable inks to print the collection and sensing elements on these fingers.
The researchers say the sensor could be used in both security and food safety settings.
