Scientists use 3D printing technology to shorten medical testing time and cost
If you are a doctor, you may know that some test results may take several weeks to get, depending on a number of factors. Recently, "Biomedical Engineering" published an article about the 3D printing frame based on stereolithography. With the help of this 3D printing frame, the completion time of tests similar to the type of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay will be shortened. It is understood that the subject of this article is "Minimizing Fluid Transfer in Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assays", which was written by researchers at the University of North Carolina. Previously, the team has ongoing research in this area, hoping to accelerate the development of health care technology. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is a common technique used to detect certain drugs present in a substance or bloodstream. Organizations such as CSI, NCIS, etc. need to pass these tests to get results. During the test, the technician needs to move the liquid being tested through the pipette to another test end. But this process needs to be repeated at least 12 times, not only time-consuming, but also susceptible to human error and cross-contamination.
