Title

A label-free and portable graphene FET aptasensor for children blood lead detection

Subject

Childhood lead poisoning
Blood lead levels
Lead testing

Description

This research team lead by Chenyu Wang have created a new method of sensing blood lead levels in children that can read levels in the nanograms per liter (down to 0.00375 micrograms per deciliter) which if mass produced would allow for better screening and diagnosis of childhood lead poisoning.
