Summary of biomarkers and magnetic sensing technologies for skin detection and heart diseases.
| Biomarker | Description | Detection Technology | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Blood Volume Variations | Fluctuations in blood volume that can indicate cardiovascular risk | GMR, TMR | Useful for predicting cardiovascular diseases |
| ECG (Electrocardiogram) | Measures electrical activity of the heart | HESs, GMR, TMR | Essential for diagnosing arrhythmias and other heart conditions |
| Melanin | Pigment responsible for skin color | HESs, GMR, TMR | Can indicate skin health |
| Cortisol | Stress hormones present in sweat | AMRs, TMR | Potential indicator of stress |
| Glucose | Sugar level in blood and interstitial fluid | GMI, GMR | Important for diabetes monitoring |
| Lactate | Indicator of metabolic activity | TMR, AMRs | Useful in athletic performance |
| pH Levels | Acidity/alkalinity of skin | HESs | Can indicate skin condition |
| Uric Acid | Associated with gout and kidney function | GMR, TMR | Indicates metabolic disorders |
| Pro-inflammatory Cytokines | Indicators of inflammation in the skin | AMRs, GMI | Important for skin diseases |
| Troponin | Protein released during heart muscle injury | TMR, GMR | Key biomarker for heart diseases |
| B-type Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) | Hormone produced by the heart in response to stress | HESs, AMRs | Indicates heart failure risk |
