Description
Josep Maria Cantons, Akash Bachhuka, and Lluis F Marsal build a sensor platform to detect preeclampsia early in pregnancy. Published in 2024, the paper targets a pregnancy specific high blood pressure syndrome that is a leading cause of harm to mothers and babies worldwide. A protein called endoglin is a candidate marker for the condition.
The platform joins nanoporous anodic alumina, whose surface area is huge, with gold nanoclusters that give off light. Antibodies on the surface make it selective for endoglin. Light readings tracked the marker across a set range, with a low detection limit. The authors present the device as a proof of concept for a portable, low cost test.
