Abstract excerpt
Prevention of life threatening hypersensitivity reactions to carbamazepine is possible through pre-treatment screening of the associated HLA-B*15:02 risk allele. However, clinical implementation of screening is hindered by the high cost and slow turnaround of conventional HLA typing methods. We have developed an interdigitated electrode (IDE) biosensor platform utilizing loop mediated isothermal amplification...
