Release date: 2018-04-13 At present, when diabetic patients monitor blood sugar daily, they need to pin the needle and measure the blood sugar level by finger blood. The wristband developed by the University of Bath team has a series of miniature sensors, each of which, under the action of a small current, can draw glucose from a nearby hair follicle, store it in a tiny device inside the wristband, and measure it. This wristband can now give a blood glucose level reading every 10 minutes to 15 minutes over a period of hours. Since each sensor corresponds to a hair follicle, the parameter difference interference between the wrist skin and the inside of the skin which may occur during the glucose extraction process is avoided, so the glucose measurement is relatively more precise, and no blood sample is needed for calibration. The development team published a related paper in the new issue of the British journal Nature Nanotechnology. According to reports, the most important raw material of this wristband is graphene, which has many characteristics such as electrical conductivity, softness and environmental protection. The research team tested the device on pig skin and healthy volunteer skin and achieved an ideal blood glucose monitoring effect. Next, they hope to further optimize the number of sensors in the wristband to achieve all-weather blood glucose monitoring. Based on this prototype, the researchers hope to eventually introduce a low-cost, wearable sensor that periodically sends the measured blood glucose levels to the wearer's cell phone or smart watch and alerts when the blood sugar level is abnormal.

This disposable non-inactivated virus sampling tube consists of fibrous swab and culture medium.The medium contains antibiotics and antimycotics for the purpose of inhabitation of bacteria and veasts overgrowth. It helps to maintain the cellular integrity and preserve the viruses, mycoplasma, chlamydiae and ureaplasma.
When collect specimens with this disposable Non-inactivated virus sampling tube, tube can be transported to the laboratory at 2-8ºC within 2 days. If it can not be delivered to the laboratory within 48hours, it should be stored at-70ºC or below, and ensure that the collected specimens are delivered to the laboratory within 1 week. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. For best performance, complete testing within 24 hours.
