  • Publication number: 20220146509
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a chromatography strip for diagnosing pregnancy having multiple test lines, a pregnancy diagnosis kit having the chromatography strip, and a method for diagnosing pregnancy using the same. The present invention overcomes the problem of false negatives due to hCG variants such that pregnancy can be determined more accurately and conveniently by the naked eye. Furthermore, there is an effect of improving the concentration measurement range of hCG or a variant thereof by using a chromatography strip for diagnosing pregnancy which is constituted by multiple test lines and control lines.

  • Publication number: 20210164974
    Abstract: The present invention relates to: a chromatographic strip comprising a plurality of test lines for a competitive assay; a diagnostic kit comprising the chromatographic strip; and a method for qualitatively or quantitatively analyzing a target material within a specimen by using the same. By using the chromatographic strip of the present invention, qualitative analysis and highly reliable quantitative analysis can be rapidly and conveniently carried out with the naked eyes or a sensor even for a target material, which has one ligand binding position or is small. Furthermore, the present invention has an effect of improving the concentration measurement range of an analyte by the mutual supplementation of test lines and control lines.

  • Publication number: 20210140963
    Abstract: An apparatus for inspecting an antibiotic and a method for determining antibiotic sensitivity using the same is provided. The antibiotic susceptibility inspection time which has conventionally taken longer than 24 hours is shortened to about 2 hours or less, the efficacy of the target substance is monitored in real time, the identification of the microorganism, the kind of the antibiotic capable of treating the microorganism, and the minimum dosage thereof are quickly confirmed. Microbial infections requiring prompt diagnosis and treatment can be effectively treated.

  • Patent number: 10041952
    Abstract: Provided is a composition for detecting a protein, containing a tyrosine oxide-coupled biomaterial. Various diseases may be easily and rapidly diagnosed by easily detecting the composition containing a tyrosine oxide-coupled biomaterial according to the present invention, by identifying a color of the protein bound with a tyrosine oxide-coupled biomaterial prepared by binding tyrosine oxide, which is a natural pigment present in a living body, with the biomaterial. Accordingly, the composition of the present invention may be used to easily and rapidly diagnose various diseases in real time in an operating room, and may usefully replace conventional histological analysis without a secondary antibody reaction and a final operation of color expression.
