<br>Here in this project, we are going to create a biosensor that will detect the presence of antigen 85, a potential tuberculosis biomarker. Antigen 85 is found in sputum, urine and most abundantly, blood serum of TB patient. Hence, blood serum of TB suspect will be used for the test. This biosensor designed to be able to detect TB more specifically than the existed method. The biosensor itself utilize split betagalactosidase combined with scFv (single chain fragment variable).</br> | <br>Here in this project, we are going to create a biosensor that will detect the presence of antigen 85, a potential tuberculosis biomarker.

<br>To complete the biosensor we created, characterization method to analyze the presence of Antigen 85 qualitatively and quantitatively already constructed. Characterization method is easy enough so this biosensor could be used as a good kit for TB detection in suburban area. </br> ---> | <br>To complete the biosensor we created, characterization method to analyze the presence of Antigen 85 qualitatively and quantitatively already constructed.
