Date Time Researchers work to develop rapid cancer detection from single drop of blood Detecting and monitoring cancer through a simple finger prick blood test is the goal of a joint project between Swinburne and industry partner Universal Biosensors (UBI). Using UBI’s electrochemical platform, Swinburne researchers have been working to develop a biosensor for the Tn antigen, a biomarker used for detecting, staging and monitoring cancer. “The Tn antigen is a universal cancer biomarker because this molecule is present in more than 80 per cent of carcinomas,” says Swinburne’s Dr Saimon ...

Deakin Deakin University scientists have developed a cost-effective way to address the worldwide shortage of fine aggregate used in concrete, while also eliminating the need to dump millions of tonnes of contaminated soil into landfill. Constructions sites worldwide are removing tonnes of per-and poly-fluoroalkyl (PFAS) contaminated soil and sending it to landfill. Landfilling is expensive and, as seen in Melbourne with its problems getting rid of PFAS-contaminated soil from the West Gate Tunnel and Rail Tunnel projects, raises concerns around long term health and environmental exposure by PF...
