Nanoscience Innovation Aids Quick Virus Detection

New nanoscience technology may help slow down influenza outbreaks and speed up vaccine development and human testing. 

Professor Suresh Neethirajan, the head of BioNano Laboratory at the School of Engineering of the University of Guelph collaborated with a team of Japanese and South Korean scientists. They developed a sensitive monitoring system that identifies what virus strains will be most widely circulated for a specific year. 

The system is 500 times more sensitive than current systems being used. Results are produced within a few seconds or less than a minute. The method also has potential to be used for detection of food-borne viruses.

Happiness is all i see now I never thought that I will be cured from HERPES virus again. I have been suffering from a deadly disease (HERPES) for the past 3 years now, I had spent a lot of money going from one places to another, from churches to churches, hospitals have been my home every day residence. Constant checks up have been my hobby not until this faithful day, I was searching through the internet, I saw a testimony on how DR agaba helped someone in curing his HERPES disease, quickly I copied his email which is Dragabasolutionhome@gmail.com just to give him a test I spoke to him, he asked me to do some certain things which I did, he told me that he is going to provide the herbal cure to me, which he did, then he asked me to go for medical checkup after some days after using the herbal cure, behold I was free from the deadly disease, he only asked me to post the testimony through the whole world, faithfully am doing it now, please brothers and sisters, he is great, I owe him in return. if you are having a similar problem just email him on : Dragabasolutionhome@gmail.com or WhatApp: +2349074536486
