Researchers have developed a new optical biosensor to detect the monkeypox virus. The biosensor can provide results in 20 minutes. The new technology is faster and more cost-effective than the PCR test. The biosensor uses a monoclonal antibody to capture virus particles on a sensor chip. The captured particles are then detected using a digital detection platform called PD-IRIS. Researchers have developed a new optical biosensor to detect the monkeypox virus.
