Nano sensor can detect Ebola virus in few minutes | Austalians invention

If any one had got a doubt that, he got some disease, then they went to hospital and consult doctor. Normally, doctor sent you to the lab test ( urine test, blood test etc....,. ). To get test results, it will take 1 day. If it is a major disease, to get results will take 1 week. Up to then, you've to wait and you're in a tension, that either the result will be +ve or -ve....

And that dangerous diseases like Ebola, HIV, AIDS and tuberculosis....... The people ( nurses or lab researchers ) are not interested or ready to check your blood that wheather you've the disease or not. Becuz, they think that this might attack to them if they touch your blood..... Right......??????

So, what now...????? 

To rectify all the problems, I mean to test the disease in simple way and within less time, the Australian students invented a new sensor to detech viruses in your blood....



What's the story.....?????

The undergraduate students from Australia won the prestigious Harvard biomod ( bimolecular design ) competition for the invention of a DNA sensor, which will quickly detect Ebola and other diseases....

This is a nano sensor machine which is so small and it could take at most one day to detect virus....

Those are from university of New South Wales. They've beaten 33 teams to take out grand prize for their invention.

How it works......?????

Keep your blood in that machine, it could take one day time. Then after if the virus is present ( disease ) it'll lighten up....

This sensor is more accurate than the other sensors present in the market. This will help cells and ants work together as a team.

This nano sensor or machine turns Like a beacon when it comes into contact with a specified strand of DNA.

Firstly, this device is meant for to detect Ebola. But now, it also detecting the viruses like HIV, tuberculosis and even cancer.

Advantages..... :

  • Quick results
  • Cheaper
  •  And it can also plugin to your mobile phone and you can see virus ( Lawrence Lee, a microbiologist said )
  • Small in size
  • We can use this thing any where in the world...
