Scientists at the Turkish Balkand University of National Nanotechnology Research Center have discovered a new way to test for corona virus. In this test of nanotechnology, the result of the Corona test is revealed in just 10 seconds. The accuracy of the result is 95%.
The state-of-the-art technology has been dubbed Diagnosis and will be an alternative to PCR tests.
University scientist Abdullah Atalar says that if a person has the corona virus, the test will be able to confirm the corona in just 10 seconds. If a person does not have the coronavirus, it will take some time for the test results to come out because this technology brings out the results after a thorough investigation.
He said the technology would help prevent the spread of the corona virus as the infected person could be transferred to a quarantine immediately after the results come out in ten seconds. This technology can be used for any epidemic other than the corona virus.
Another University scientist, Buland Ortaj, said the diagnostic system kit was usable for seven months.
The university says Phase II experiments with the technology have been successful. The technology will soon be made available to laboratories and hospitals.
He said that the margin of error in the results of PCR test is very high and it takes two to three days for the result to come.
He said that commercial production of this technology would start soon and it could be exported to other countries as well.
