A wearable hormone sensor is a gadget that can continuously and non-intrusively track a person’s body’s hormone levels.
These sensors, which can be placed on the body, can gather information on several hormones, such as estrogen, insulin, and cortisol.
They typically communicate data to a smartphone or other device for processing and interpretation using a combination of biosensors and wireless communication technology.
For patients who must regularly check their hormone levels, such as diabetics who must check their insulin levels or those with hormonal abnormalities, wearable hormone sensors can be helpful.
They can also be used by researchers to gather information on the levels of hormones in various populations, which can aid in the creation of fresh therapies and treatments for disorders linked to hormones.
Overall, wearable hormone sensors have the potential to revolutionize how we track and treat problems relating to hormones by offering a more practical and reliable substitute for conventional hormone testing techniques.
The Global Wearable Hormone Sensor Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
A Hormone Wearable Sensor Based on Local Microbial Sensing, the next step in the development of biosensors is connected devices that continuously track human biology.
Since hormones are essential for many physiological functions, including stress tolerance, blood pressure regulation, reproductive rhythms, and body odor, monitoring hormone levels is of great importance.
However, from a biological, chemical, and engineering standpoint, real-time hormone monitoring is difficult, with insulin detection being the only major achievement.
The goal of this research is to create a revolutionary wearable gadget that can detect the hormone estradiol, which affects women’s moods and fertility, through perspiration.
This project combines microbial genetics and protein identification, new polymer and nanoparticle compositions, and novel sensor architecture, making it extremely original and ambitious.
An optical-to-electrical interface for recording the fluorescence output of a biosensor based on an estradiol sensitive transcription factor derived from a microbiological organism will be part of the wearable device (i.e. bracelet).
The biosensor is made of dendrimers and polypeptide nanoparticles, which have been functionalized with fluorescent molecular beacons (MB) and a transcription factor that is hormone-sensitive.
Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) links the two fluorescent entities of the MB together while the hormone is absent, but when estradiol is present, the MB separates and a fluorescent signal is released.
To provide the applicant with the finest multidisciplinary scientific environment and ensure the eventual success of this research, it will be carried out in two internationally renowned facilities in France and the United States.
