It is noted that the biochip is an express test that allows you to choose the only correct diagnostic option.

“It looks like a small plate 25 × 75 mm in size, on which short oligonucleotide probes are artificially synthesized, which make it possible to determine the“ genetic portrait ”of the pathogens of community-acquired pneumonia,” RIA Novosti reported.

Also, the research institute noted that the DNA biochip is not implanted into the human body.

The institute explained that biomaterial samples are taken from a patient in a medical organization and sent to a laboratory, where the presence of one or another infectious agent in the sample is determined using a biochip.

According to the press service of Rospotrebnadzor, the biochip is planned to be tested in 2023-2024.

Earlier it was reported that Rospotrebnadzor began work on the creation of a biochip for testing for coronavirus disease.

Doctor Timur Pesterev, in an interview with FAN, gave advice on vaccination against COVID-19.
