Researchers have developed a novel fluorescent nanosensor capable of rapidly detecting indole-3-propionic acid (IPA), an emerging biomarker linked to gut health and disease. The sensor produces a rapid optical readout within minutes, offering a significantly faster and more accessible alternative to conventional analytical techniques.
