    Abstract: A device and method for detecting COVID-19 and other pathogens includes a sample compartment contained within an interior of the device and having multiple apertures for releasably receiving one or more test tubes containing a biological sample. A bottom portion of the test tube is contained within the interior of the device and a top portion of the test tube is exposed to atmosphere. The biological sample is lysed using the device; the lysed sample is mixed with one or more primers and then amplification (RT-LAMP) is performed using the device. A thermally conductive material on or in proximity to the sample compartment can facilitate precise heating of the compartment and sample. A thermally insulative material can be inside the interior of the housing. Multiple samples can be tested simultaneously. The results can be interpreted by a color change of the sample. The device is efficient, portable, reliable, and re-usable.

    Abstract: A glucose sensor includes an insulating metal oxide layer and at least one pair of metallic electrodes arranged on the insulating metal oxide layer and separated by a gap containing the metal oxide layer. In operation, a probe including a voltage supply and current sensor can provide a voltage difference across the first and second metallic electrodes while a sample is present across the gap between the electrodes. A measured current between the first and second metallic electrodes when the voltage difference is provided can be correlated to a glucose level of the sample.
