A Low-Cost Handheld Reconfigurable Impedimetric Readout System for Diagnostics of Viral Infections
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper presents a portable impedimetric biosensor for detecting infectious diseases such as SARS-CoV-2 Infections. A bio-ready sensing electrode functionalized with SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid antibody was employed to quantitatively convert the concentration of nucleocapsid protein (N-protein) into impedance changes. In this paper, we proposed a readout system with a dynamic input range of 200 Ω to 1 MΩ magnitude and 0 to 180° phase. The resolution of this device is 1% and 6.5° for measuring the magnitude and phase, respectively. Herein we demonstrate and discuss the proposed system’s functionality, sensitivity, and selectivity using the clinical swab samples. As per these results, this readout system is suitable for the detection of N-protein ranging up to 10,000 pg/mL with a resolution of 56 fg/mL. The proposed impedimetric sensing system can be adopted for the detection of infectious diseases in the future. This low-cost (<$80) device using off-the-shelf is a unique candidate for batch production purposes during urgent pandemic situations.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
