ITHACA, New York, July 8 -- Cornell University issued the following news:
Cornell researchers have developed a bioelectric device that can detect and classify new variants of coronavirus, and potentially other viruses, such as measles and influenza, to identify those that are most harmful.
The sensing tool uses a cell membrane, aka biomembrane, on a microchip that recreates the cellular environment for - and the biological steps of - infection. This enables researchers . . .
