Abstract
A wearable device mounted on a living body can detect an analyte response signal transmitted from tissue in the living body. The tissue contains at particles conjugated to at least one complex of (i) an antibody labeled with a fluorophore, the labeled antibody having a target analyte binding site; and (ii) protein M labeled with a quencher that is complimentary to the fluorophore of the labeled antibody, wherein the labeled protein M competes with the target analytes for the target analyte binding site on the labeled antibody; wherein the fluorophore and quencher are spectrally matched such that there is a detectable change in the fluorescent signal. The analyte response signal is related to interaction of the target analytes with the complexes. A processor can determine a presence or absence of the analytes based on the analyte response signal.
