| This study reports a rapid and inexpensive diagnostic test, called RAPID 1.0 (Real-time Accurate Portable Impedimetric Detection prototype 1.0) which provides a result within 4 minutes. The RAPID technology is based on electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), which transforms the binding event between the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and receptor protein ACE2 into a detected electrical signal. The signal can be read through a desktop instrument or a smartphone. | RAPID 1.0 is a good alternative to sophisticated diagnostic technique like RT-PCR. RAPID is inexpensive compared to existing methods for SARS-CoV-2 detection ✍ | 33997767 (Matter)

| Immunosensor based quantification of the ultralow concentration of cytokines (IL-6, TNF-alpha, etc.) present in blood or respiratory samples to monitor local and systemic inflammation. | Limitation : Biosensors may have a drawback when detecting IL-6 in real matrices as proteins and mucin concentrations may interfere.

| This study reports a low-cost, quantitative paper-based electrochemical sensor chip for the digital detection of SARS-CoV-2 within 5 minutes. The biosensor consists of the ssDNA-conjugated AuNPs (gold nanoparticles) that simultaneously target two separate regions of the same SARS-CoV-2 N-gene. The study showed a sensitivity of 231 (copies µL-1)-1 and a limit of detection of 6.9 copies/µL. | The sensor chip had several advantages over previously reported tests, an improved limit of detection, no need for additional redox medium for electron exchange, faster response to achieve stable data, excellent shelf life, and its plausible economic production. ✍ | 33079516 (ACS Nano)

| In this study, a simple electrochemical sensor-based diagnostic method is developed to detect the intensity of ROS levels in the sputum samples of candidates for early-stage screening of COVID-19. The assay resulted in accuracy and sensitivity of both 97% within 30 sec. | The method provides an alternative to clinical judgment (HR-CT, ESR, CRP, CBC, Lymphopenia, and observational symptoms) and RT-PCR assays for fast screening of the patients who need a further medical examination. ✍ | 32729548 (Biosens Bioelectron)
