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
