please bleed on this cd, the sequel

ear the dawn of the meta-roj blog, i posted about a project to do organic chemistry on a cd. that work was done at ucsd, and now we have good old academic one-upsmanship… from ohio state.

The ELISA biochemical test — one of the most widely used clinical, food safety, and environmental tests — normally takes hours or even days to perform manually. Using a specially designed CD, engineers performed the test automatically, and in only one hour.

ELISA is “enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.” if that’s not enough for you, you can drop by the usda site for some more info.

lead researcher at ohio state is l. james lee, so you can drop by that page and say hi.
