Breakthrough in Parkinson’s Diagnosis: Iranian Researcher Unveils Rapid Testing Method
Iranian scientist Fatemeh Zahra Seyedi has developed an innovative non-invasive sensor for early detection of Parkinson’s disease using gold nanoparticles. This groundbreaking technique causes the nanoparticles to change color—turning purple in the presence of specific biomarkers in the saliva of diagnosed individuals, while remaining unchanged in healthy people. This method promises to be cost-effective, quick, and much less invasive than traditional diagnostics, which often rely on subjective assessments. Seyedi emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis for better patient outcomes and is seeking partnerships for further validation, potentially transforming how Parkinson’s disease is diagnosed and managed globally.
