  • Patent number: 11313828
    Abstract: The biosensor includes a substrate, an electrode pattern positioned on the substrate, a passivation layer which is formed with a plurality of holes spaced apart from each other, and a bead positioned at one or more holes among the plurality of holes, and to which an antibody is attached, the electrode pattern includes a first electrode pattern part and a second electrode pattern part spaced apart from the first electrode pattern part, which has a same height as a height of the first electrode pattern part, and forms an electric field with the first electrode pattern part.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10648988
    Abstract: A method for providing information relevant to the diagnosis of a neurodegenerative disorder. The method includes (i) obtaining a biological sample containing vesicles from a subject, (ii) measuring the level of amyloid beta in the biological sample using an antibody specific for the N-terminus of amyloid beta, and (iii) comparing the measured level of amyloid beta in the biological sample with the level of amyloid beta in a previously prepared control sample.

  • Patent number: 10585105
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for diagnosing a disease using an analysis of oligomer of an abnormal aggregated protein includes: (1) preparing a body fluid sample including at least one of blood, blood plasma, blood serum, saliva, urine, tear, and mucus; (2) making a dilution of the body fluid sample; (3) using a biosensor to measure and detect an aggregated protein in the diluted body fluid sample; (4) analyzing a signal change of the biosensor caused by the dilution of the aggregated protein to determine a slope according to the dilution from the measurements; and (5) analyzing a proportion of the oligomer from the slope according to the dilution to make a diagnosis. The method uses a biosensor to measure the impedance and the protein concentration of blood and detects the slope according to the numerical value of the monomer and the oligomer to diagnose normal or abnormal protein aggregation or the associated diseases with more accuracy.
