We're thrilled to announce a publication in Nature Portfolio - Nature Communications that highlights recent research in Alzheimer's disease detection using the #icpTOF in combination with the Teledyne Photon Machines IRIDIA laser system. The specific work features a novel peptide-coated gold nanocluster that targets connective tissue growth factor (CTGF). CTGF, an upstream regulator of ß-amyloid plaques, plays a role in Alzheimer's disease. This innovative probe shows great promise for diagnosing early-stage Alzheimer's disease before Aβ plaques form. It can also measure CTGF in postmortem brain sections using multimodal analysis, including ICP-TOFMS for differentiating between Alzheimer’s and healthy brains. Learn more at the link below!
