Bacteriopatch
the idea
The patch would contain bacteria able to recognize compound that are precursor of diseases and give directly the result by a colored signal at the surface of the patch.
how to concretize it
Some new patchs are selective membranes that permit diffusion only from one direction, here from blood to patch, it could prevent infection from our bacteria containing in the patch. Then we would need to express on the outer membrane of the bacteria antibodies that could enabled the transduction of a specific signal.
approval
Very interesting but it required 5 years for a team to succesfully implant the genom from a bacterium to another.
