Method And System For Detection, Quantification And/Or Identification Of An Analyte In A Specimen Based On Electrical And/Or Optical Response To An Electric Field

摘要

A method and a system of detecting, identifying and quantifying an analyte, for example coronavirus, in a specimen comprising, comprising: apportioning the suspended specimen into one or more test samples; optionally adding a reagent to the test samples; and applying an electric field with a first magnitude and with a second magnitude over the test samples for a selected period of time. The second magnitude should be higher than the first magnitude. The method and system further comprises: measuring electrical properties of said one or more test samples in response to said applied electric field for said first magnitude and for said second magnitude over said period of time; identifying characteristics of said electrical properties responses; and determining the presence, the identification and/or the quantity of coronavirus based on the characteristics of said electrical properties responses to said first magnitude and to said second magnitude of the applied electric field.
