WHO ARE WE?

Wine is the perfect analyte to test the capability of differential sensors constructed due to the wine's chemical diversity and complexity. Compounds present in wine are metabolites coming not only from the grape but also from the yeast that act upon the grape, the environmental factors to which the growing grapes were exposed to, and even the oak barrels where the wine was aged. Wine is a great test sample for the results of the stream to extend to applications in disease diagnostics via metabolomic studies. Furthermore, there will be a direct impact of this study on the wine industry.

There are about 500 different kinases in the Human Kinome. Particularly, the family of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) has been involved in the development of 30% of all known cancers. The development of novel detection methods can allow us to understand the activation/inhibition of specific kinase pathways. MAPKs are very challenging proteins to recognize due to their similar structure.  The use of differential sensing techniques can be suitable
