New Test...

This article talks about a new test using nanotechnology that can provide better diagnosis of not just HIV, but some cancers such as prostate.  The test is supposed to be exceptionally easy to use & more cost effective.  This would allow a wider use of the procedure & make it more readily available in resource strapped areas.  They mention this application might be useful in detecting other illnesses as well.  

If this works it could provide a needed push in testing.  The ease & cost factor will be huge.   The test is more sensitive.  I wonder how long it will be before this available on the market?  

Cya...
