The respiratory pathogens that cause COVID-19 and the flu are spread through tiny droplets and aerosols that infected people release when they talk, cough, or sneeze.
A new bioelectronic mask can detect common respiratory viruses, including flu and coronavirus, and then alert users via their mobile devices.
It is stated that the highly sensitive mask can measure liquid samples with a volume of 0.3 microliters and gaseous samples with an ultra-low concentration of 0.1 femtograms per milliliter.
Professor Fan Yin’s team has developed a small sensor containing three types of synthetic molecules that can simultaneously recognize the surface proteins of coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), bird flu (H5N1) and swine flu (H1N1).
The developers of the mask said they can easily update the wearable to detect new respiratory viruses.
As Ukrinform reports, a team of scientists from the Kyoto Prefectural University (Japan) have developed masks that glow under ultraviolet light if they have traces of coronavirus (COVID-19) on them.
