Professor Takeo Miyake, Junior Researcher Azuhari Saman, and their research team have developed a “needle-type multi-enzyme biosensor” that enables real-time monitoring of sugar transport in plants.
Professor Takeo Miyake and Junior Researcher Saman Azhari from the Graduate School of Information, Production and Systems at Waseda University, along with their research team, Professor Tomonori Kawano from the University of Kitakyushu, and Professor Yuta Nishina from the Okayama University, have jointly developed a needle-type multi‑enzyme biosensor that can be inserted into plant tissues to enable real‑time monitoring of sugar transport (e.g., sucrose and glucose) in stems and fruits. This research has been released in a press announcement.
