Scientists from the University of New Jersey, in conjunction with scientists from the company Dyurin Technologies developed a blood analysis technique based on proteomic microanalysis, according to an Internet publication for girls and women from 14 to 35 years old Pannochka. Net This technique shows the presence of specific antibodies in the blood, which indicate the patient's Alzheimer's disease with an unprecedented diagnostic accuracy of 96%. Using the same test, it is possible to distinguish Alzheimer's disease from Parkinson's disease.

Alzheimer's disease was described more than a hundred years ago, and since that time, 36 million people worldwide have been diagnosed with this diagnosis, but there has been only one diagnosis until recently: a direct examination of the brain tissue immediately after the patient's death.

The world desperately needs techniques similar to that proposed by scientists, that is, in accurate, non-invasive and inexpensive diagnostic analyzes. Ideally, the analysis should not only show the disease, but also warn about its appearance in the years before the appearance of the first symptoms. Among other things, this analysis can become a routine daily routine, part of the ongoing surveys that every elderly person.

The results of the research can be found on the website of the University.
