Using a "smart surface," researchers at McMaster University and SQI Diagnostics have developed a way to detect Interleukin-6, a cytokine produced in COVID-19 infections whose concentrations can offer vital information about a patient’s level and stage of infection.
TTCI will contribute up to US$300,000 over two years to commercialize a bacteria-detecting patch that signals when food has been spoiled, created in 2018 by a McMaster team.
Researchers create a self-cleaning surface that repels even the deadliest superbugs, with medical settings and food industry in mind
