Developing Rapid Strip Test for SPINT1, sFlt1 and PIGF detection (next phase from Developing new diagnostics to prevent stillbirth)

Project Member(s): Liao, J., Fu, L., Wen, S.

Funding or Partner Organisation: National Health & Medical Research Council (NHMRC Synergy Grants)
National Health & Medical Research Council (NHMRC Synergy Grants)

Start year: 2023

Summary: Continued development of the strip-based SPINT1 protein test assay, in collaboration with UoM via NHMRC funding awarded to UoM (APP1183854). The specific objectives of the project are: • Optimizing the protocol for effective surface modification and antibody bioconjugation. • Optimizing the protocol for the detection of SPINT1, sFlt1 and PIGF biomarkers. • Verifying the performance of the strip-based SPINT1, sFlt1 and PIGF detection in clinical samples. • Test clinical samples.
