Sensor to detect in seconds the Dopamine release in Human Brain

Scientists have developed a sensor capable of detecting the dopamine chemical released from the human brain within seconds. The sensor will indicate whether secretion has occurred or not. According to scientists, excessive secretion of dopamine can cause a person to become so agitated that they might take suicidal steps or commit serious crimes.

This research, published in the prestigious Journal of the American Chemical Society, is being jointly conducted by Professor T.P. Yadav from the Physics Department of Allahabad University, Professor Chandrashekhar Tiwari from IIT Kharagpur, and Professor Douglas from Sampiana University in Brazil.Professor T.P. Yadav, who is among the top two percent of scientists in the world, explains that excessive secretion of dopamine rapidly increases excitement in the brain. As a result, a person can lose full control and, without thinking, might commit serious crimes. These crimes can range from murder and suicide to physical assaults.

According to Professor Yadav, to detect the amount of dopamine in the body, a blood test is currently required, which takes a significant amount of time to report. His dopamine sensor, once placed in the mouth, will indicate within seconds whether dopamine secretion has occurred in the brain.

In the next phase of research, the sensor will be upgraded. Professor Yadav will now upgrade the sensor to determine the exact amount of dopamine secretion and its positive and negative effects on the human brain. He will also investigate how long the dopamine sensor can function. This research has the potential to bring revolutionary changes in the medical field.
