Vasuki Durairaj: Fast drug molecule sensing

Updated: Sep 19

Did you know that nanocellulose has the potential to revolutionize medical sensors and diagnostics? FinnCERES researcher Vasuki Durairaj from VTT is at the forefront of this invention.



By replacing fossil-based ingredients with nanocellulose the monitoring of specific molecules is faster, more accurate, and sustainable.


The water-loving nanocellulose can significantly boost the selectivity of sensors to specific needs. Plus, it's tunable and allows for the engineering of unique functionality, enabling fast and accurate detection of very low small molecule quantities in blood samples - this can make a life-saving difference in the emergency room!
