A high-sensitivity immunoassay method and system. The high-sensitivity immunoassay method for a target protein comprises: capturing the target protein to obtain a solution containing an immune complex; spreading said solution on a detection substrate under the action of a passive driving mechanism; immobilizing the immune complex on at least one surface; and performing detection and calculating the concentration of the immune complex. The immunoassay method uses a consumable structure having a simple structure and low costs, achieving highly sensitive detection of a target protein to be tested.

Provided are a dementia diagnosis system and a dementia diagnosis program that are capable of identifying a patient having dementia with high accuracy by a simple and easy test. A dementia diagnosis system (1) has: a measurement unit (51) that continuously measures the acidity/basicity of a body fluid obtained from a subject; a confirmation unit (52) that confirms, for the acidity/basicity continuously measured by the measurement unit (51), an outlier at which the acidity/basicity becomes alkaline and the presence or absence of a change point at which the acidity/basicity persistently shifts to the alkaline side after the outlier is confirmed; and a prediction unit (53) that predicts whether or not the subject has dementia on the basis of the confirmation result of the confirmation unit (52).

The present invention refers to the field of in-vitro neural network stimulation, and particularly to devices that utilize cell cultures on multi-electrode arrays (MEAs) for investigating neuronal activity in research and drug testing applications. The invention consists of a closed loop system wherein a computational model stimulates via the electrodes of a MEA, cultured neurons on top of the MEA in order to produce disease- like activity states. The produced activity feeds back to the computational model, in real or periodic time, producing a hybrid neuronal population that can be used for drug screening. The respective method for the application of the abovementioned system is also disclosed.

The present invention provides a kit, a device and an in-vitro assay based on a nanozyme-based lateral flow assay utilizing para-phenylenediamine of optimal concentration 0.1mM to 10mM as a chromogenic substrate for catalytically active aptamer-conjugated gold-nanozyme, which enhances sensitivity. The chromogenic substrate produces a robust brown color upon oxidation by catalytically active nanomaterial. The brown color remains stable for weeks and presents high contrast against the background. This overcomes the limitations of ordinary LFA in detecting analytes present at critical levels that are below microgram per milliliter, often resulting in false negative results. This provides a versatile and high-sensitive point-of-care diagnostic technique for rapid screening of infectious disease antigens and the detection of biomarkers for diseases such as cancer, cardiac and neurodegenerative diseases.
