New Sensor Sends Electronic Signal When Estrogen Is Detected

Tuesday, November 24, 2015 - 13:00 in Physics & Chemistry

Researchers in New Zealand have developed a new sensor that can detect low levels of E2, one of the primary estrogen hormones, in liquids. The sensor, described in the Journal of Vacuum Science and Technology B, has a simple design, gives real-time readings, could be integrated into an electronic monitoring system and uses very little power - advantages it has over other types of detection methods.
