A diagnostic method suitable for detection and quantification of blood-related diseases or conditions. The methods utilize biomarkers, such as hemoglobin and hemozoin as catalysts in an atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) reaction performed above a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of a polymer which allows the polymerization to be tracked by rate of turbidity formation. The rate of turbidity formation is correlated to the concentration of the biomarker, making the tests useful quantitative techniques which can be utilized as point-of-care tests in the field.
一种适用于检测和量化与血液有关的疾病或病症的诊断方法。这些方法利用
生物标记物,如血红蛋白和
安息香酸作为催化剂,在聚合物的较低临界溶液温度(LCST)以上进行原子转移自由基聚合(ATRP)反应,从而通过浊度形成的速率跟踪聚合反应。浊度形成的速率与
生物标记物的浓度相关联,使测试成为有用的定量技术,可用作现场护理点测试。
