Concept — TRL 2
Metabolic Function
Multi-analyte lipid and organ-function panel leveraging lyophilized bead chemistry within centrifugal disc chambers.
Overview
Chronic disease management via decentralized clinics necessitates comprehensive lipid and metabolic paneling from a single finger-prick.
Architecture & Design
A specialized centrifugal disc routes a 20µL whole-blood sample into a micro-centrifuge separating plasma. The plasma is then siphoned sequentially into 8 distinct reaction wells containing specific lyophilized chromogenic substrates. High-resolution colorimetric optical sensors measure the absorbance shifts corresponding to HDL, LDL, Triglycerides, AST, and ALT.
