Researchers at the University of Notre Dame have developed a novel, automated device capable of diagnosing glioblastoma, a fast-growing and incurable brain cancer, in less than an hour .

The team is exploring the technology for diagnosing pancreatic cancer and potentially other disorders such as cardiovascular disease, dementia and epilepsy.

Running one test takes under an hour , requiring only 100 microliters of blood.

An anion exchange membrane sensor detects EGFR and its activity state in plasma CD63 extracellular vesicles from patients with glioblastoma. Communications Biology, 2024 ; 7 ( 1 ) DOI: 10.1038 /s42003-024-06385-1 Cite This Page:.
