Public Health Relevance

A bioterror attack could introduce an unknown pathogen into an area, causing disease without a familiar diagnosis. Protecting and treating military and civilian personnel requires rapid disease diagnosis. This proposal describes the design, construction, and testing of a novel diagnostic for concurrent detection of multiple pathogens in a setting where no specialized equipment or expertise is required.
