In our lab, we’ve been debating whether it makes sense to start exploring more “hybrid” approaches, like mixing ELISA principles with nanotech-based detection. We had one project where sensitivity was just not enough with traditional methods, and someone suggested looking into sensor integration. I’m curious if anyone here has tried something similar—are these hybrids really practical in everyday lab work, or are they still more of a research-stage concept?

I’ve seen colleagues get pretty excited about hybrid systems mainly because they open the door for applications outside of the usual clinical setting. When portability or speed really matters, sensors or nano-enhanced kits can make a big difference. It feels like we’re heading into a time when labs won’t need to choose between accuracy and convenience as much, since these technologies are slowly finding ways to balance both in one workflow.
