Pakistani Doctor develops App Based Covid-19 Diagnostic Test Jawad AhmadLast Updated: Dec 14, 2020 We heard about Covid-19 in march and had no idea that this virus will be so lethal. With time, we came to know the contagious nature of coronavirus, and from that time, there is no end to it.

Pioneering diagnostics platform changes the way COVID-19 is detected

Pioneering diagnostics platform changes the way COVID-19 is detected Dec 10 2020 Montreal-based Two-Photon Research Inc. announces CAST, a diagnostics platform that changes the way viruses are detected. The CAST platform uses TPR’s patented Aptamer Molecular Photonic Beacon ™ (AMPB) that photonically interfaces with smartphones. The first application of CAST is for detecting SARS-CoV-2 to help control the COVID-19 pandemic. During the test, the AMPB binds to the S1 protein of SARS-CoV-2 if it is present in the saliva sample. On binding with the S1 protein, the AMPB responds to the smartphone’s LED flash. The light emitted by the AMPB is then detected by the smartphone’s CMOS sensors. No photons, no virus.
