nanopore
The technology is licensed to a subsidiary of Fujirebio and is also being adapted for continuous automated monitoring of live tissues in culture.
Developed by Syracuse University researchers, the approach combines specific binders with a common nanopore to detect various types of proteins.
The technology uses DNA nanostructures paired with nanopore sensing to potentially detect hundreds of targets per sample.
Stanford researchers said the cost of their approach is in line with Illumina sequencing but did not share data on error rate and other benchmarks at this time.
Plans are underway to make the test, which provides results in five minutes, available clinically in both single and multiplex formats.
