GENTAG and its partners have demonstrated a new disposable wireless diagnostic test platform for consumer cell phones.
The technology, based on immunoassays, can test for pregnancy, fertility, pathogens, AIDS, drugs, allergens and even certain types of cancers.
GENTAG started with well-established immunoassay technology and made it wireless and compatible with near field communication technology, which enables consumers to use their cellphones as diagnostic tools.
Users can instantly test for pathogens, allergens or common medical conditions at any time, no matter where they are.
