A solution is described for preserving cells and/or extra cellular components in naturally expressed bodily fluids (e.g. saliva, sputum, urine) for further downstream analysis and/or for diagnosis of a medical condition. The solution may be hypertonic with respect to blood. Techniques are described for enriching cells from a sample of a naturally expressed bodily fluid, and/or for analysis, e.g. to diagnose medical conditions such as cancer, obesity, infections, autism, Alzheimer disease, hetotological disorders, cardiovascular disease or disorders, diabetes, vulnerable plack, LTBI, HIV infection, COPD, ACQS.

A method for distinguishing or differentially diagnosing Alzheimer's disease from other neurodegenerative diseases, comprising determining the level of TPK1 protein in a sample from a subject, wherein a decrease in the level of TPK1 protein compared to a reference value indicates that the subject has Alzheimer's disease. Methods, compositions, test strips, test cards and/or kits for distinguishing or differentially diagnosing Alzheimer's disease from other neurodegenerative diseases by detecting a biomarker, wherein the methods, compositions, test strips, test cards and/or kits can specifically diagnose Alzheimer's disease.

The present disclosure relates generally to a sensor chip and methods for the detection of an analyte. In particular, the disclosure relates to a sensor chip for detecting an analyte in a subject suffering from a neurodegenerative disease. The sensor chip comprises a conductive layer on a membrane support layer, wherein a plurality of apertures extend through the conductive layer and the membrane support layer and are arranged such that illumination of the conductive layer and/or the membrane support layer produces a surface plasmon resonance.
