Super Sensitive Sensor For The Detection Of Hydroxyl Free Radicals in Food

Project ID: D2020-04 Background: Detection of free radicals (ROS) is vital in maintaining food safety as the estimated economic damage caused by the impact on food safety is $7 billion per year in the US. The presence of ROS causes devastating effects on the food as it leads to oxidation of proteins, breakage of oligonucleotides, or irreparable altering...

Super Sensitive Sensor for the Detection of Hydroxyl Free Radicals

Project ID: D2020-04 Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are well known for their extreme reactivity. The impact of free radicals on medical and clinical fields is critical as hydroxyl radicals (OH) can be used as biomarkers for the detection of aging, cancer, Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s diseases. Because certain types of free radicals are known...
