#2It would probably be really important miniaturize this as much as possible to reduce reagent costs. Primary/secondary antibodies are not cheap.

#3I'd love to get one of these. I have been using a whoop to sanity check all my exercise routines with their recovery data. I feel like something like this could help me hone in on the perfect diet and lifestyle even better than a continuous glucose monitor.

What's a whoop?

Completely different technology and completely different use case...

#7Fascinating. Sounds like it would change a lot of the diagnostic tools for blood tests. Fingers crossed it works as easy as the document says and they can get a good price to market!

Looks like it is a fitness tracker of some sort.

#9It’s cool to see a real lab-on-a-chip that works. I remember reading about these in college over a decade ago, and while they always seemed “cool” from an aesthetic standpoint, there was always a question of what could you actually do with it (i.e. how is the chip better than just basically mixing things in a test tube + centrifuge).

#10Can somebody please explain the challenges associated with miniaturizing and speeding up the ELISA test?
On wiki [0] I see:
> In the most simple form of an ELISA, antigens from the sample to be tested are attached to a surface. Then, a matching antibody is applied over the surface so it can bind the antigen. This antibody is linked to an enzyme and then any unbound antibodies are removed. In the final step, a substance containing the enzyme's substrate is added. If there was binding the subsequent reaction produces a detectable signal, most commonly a color change.
What are the pain points in this process?
