Sensing Barcelona is a team from the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC) and the University of Vic - Central University of Catalonia (UVic-UCC) competing in the SensUs 2019 event. For SensUs 2019, Sensing Barcelona investigated the possibilities for creating a biosensor which is able to measure the concentration of Adalimumab. The full TRD can be found via this link
Method
Fluorescence
Molecular Recognition
NHS ester labeling, this is done using click chemistry.
Physical Transduction
Fluorescence within a certain part of the EM spectrum occurs. The intensity is measured using a spectrophotometer.
Cartridge
Fluid handling can be done with only a pipette and the cuvette and the user need only insert the cuvette into the device in order to take a measurement.
Reader Instrument
The user interface is compromised primarily of the integrated touch screen.
