Mohit Verma's laboratory at Purdue University has developed a faster and more affordable paper-based biosensor for identifying genetically modified corn and soybeans, providing farmers with more accessible molecular diagnostic tools.
This new GM crop biosensor, which has a patent pending, uses a method called loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) to achieve more cost-effective and efficient testing than more expensive tools already on the market, according to a Purdue report shared by Phys.org.
The research team used their previous work in rapidly detecting highly pathogenic avian in
