"Intelligent" Fingerprinting: Simultaneous Identification of Drug Metabolites and Individuals by Using Antibody-Functionalized Nanoparticles

Thumbs up: A method of fingerprinting that enables both identification of an individual and simultaneous determination of the chemical makeup of the sweat deposited in the fingerprint has been determined. Potential applications of this methodology are enormous as the functionalization of nanoparticl...

Description
Summary:Thumbs up: A method of fingerprinting that enables both identification of an individual and simultaneous determination of the chemical makeup of the sweat deposited in the fingerprint has been determined. Potential applications of this methodology are enormous as the functionalization of nanoparticles with other antibodies enables the specific detection of numerous antigens within a fingerprint.
