The first biochip to diagnose infectious diseases through blood samples

A * STAR (A * STAR, Agency for Science, Technology and Research) and Veredus Laboratories, a provider of innovative molecular diagnostic tools, have launched VereTrop, the market ’s first biochip that can identify and diagnose 13 major tropical diseases from a single blood sample .

Through a highly automated procedure, this Lab-on-a-chip diagnostic tool will completely improve the incidence of tropical infectious diseases such as dengue fever, malaria, malaria, chikungunya and hand-foot-and-mouth disease Quality and efficiency of out-of-hospital diagnosis.

The project ’s chief virologist and Associate Professor Lisa Ng of the A * STAR Singapore Immunology Network (SIgN, Singapore Immunology Network) said: "Tropical diseases often have common clinical symptoms, such as fever, which cannot be diagnosed by doctors early in the onset. This portable The diagnostic tool is a fast and reliable virus detection method that can detect multiple pathogen targets with a blood sample within a few hours. "

Professor Laurent Renia, a SIgN malaria immunology expert, and the SIgN team successfully verified the function of this tool using patient blood samples on the outskirts of Northern Thailand on the border between Thailand and Myanmar.

Professor Francois H Nosten, a clinical collaborator of Mae Sot Oxford Clinical Department and director of the Shoklo Malaria Research Department, said: "This technology provides the possibility of rapid and accurate diagnosis of important infectious diseases that remain the main cause in tropical regions. It is versatile and easy to use. The characteristics will change the diagnosis method of infectious diseases in the health care system for regions lacking medical resources. "

Dr. Rosemary Tan, CEO of Veredus Laboratories, a subsidiary of STMicroelectronics in Singapore, said: "Veredus and A * STAR have started multiple cooperation projects since 2004. The latest VereTrop laboratory chip cooperation project integrates A * STAR, Veredus and ST The strength and technology of semiconductors has created a powerful multi-molecular (mulTIplexed molecular) product that can quickly diagnose and distinguish tropical symptoms with similar symptoms, allowing doctors to take reasonable treatments in a timely manner. "

This biochip uses A * STAR's SIgN infectious disease technology and is based on the STMicroelectronics laboratory chip platform launched by A * STAR's technology transfer department ETPL and Veredus in 2009. Previously, Veredus had obtained A * STAR's diagnostic technology authorization in the field of influenza and malaria.
