Chemistry Spring Seminar: Opto-spectroscopic Paper Test Strips for at-Home-testing of Acute Diseases
Start Date: 4/21/2023Start Time: 11:00 AM
End Date: 4/21/2023End Time: 12:30 PM

Event Description
Join us on April 21st for our Weekly Chemistry Seminar! Guest Speaker, Dr. Nianqiang Wu, will be joining us from the Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Massachusetts Amherst.
 
Abstract: This presentation will present our effort to develop plasmonic nanostructures for amplifying surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and fluorescence signals. It will also show how to incorporate SERS and fluorescence sensors into paper-based lateral flow strips (PLFS) as point-of-care tools for testing at home, clinics, emergency departments and bed sides. This talk will discuss how to engineer on-chip sample pretreatment, flow control and detection. Moreover, this talk will show how paper test strips detect protein biomarkers of cancers, traumatic brain injury (TBI) and COVID-19.
