== Method ==
Spectrophotometry (Light absorbtion). Vanomycin has the property that it absorbs photons of a specific wavelength, the strength of the absorbtion is the dependant on the concentration. By looking at the transmission for a specific wavelenght of light the concentration of Vanomycin can be determined.Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy
==Molecular Recognition ==
The detection method vancomyocin is based on bound by its own reaction against D-ala-D-ala motif in a molecularly imprinted polymer, which is bound to the surface of the absorbance properties that vancomycin possessescartridge.
== Physical Transduction ==
UV light (280 nm) was immited on When the vancomyocin binds to the polymer, the characteristics of this polymer change, which changes the electrical impedance in a quartz cuvettepredictable way. The light This shifts the phase and amplitude of the alternating current that is not absorbed passes through an optical filter (bandpass filter with center wavelength 300 nm) which then falls on a sicilone detector.put onto the cartridge
== Cartridge ==
To plasma spiked with vancomycin, trichloroacetic acid (TCA) is added. The mixture cartridge is then centrifuged at 15000 rpm for 3 mins to separated proteins from plasma. Then, disposable and the supernatant sample is seperated from pipetted onto it after mixing with the precipitated proteins, and diluted to 1:10 volume ratiodetection polyclonal antibodies.
== Reader Instrument ==
No information The TMR sensor is given == Prizes== Public Inspiation Awardlinked to an arduino microcontroller, which calculates the concentration of vancomyocin and can link to an iOS app, update the patients records, connect to a printer to print out the records and display the measured concentration on an LCD screen.
