Recently, researchers from the University of Wisconsin wanted to make blood collection more convenient and not cause pain to patients. At the same time, Tasso developed a table tennis-sized device that can be used for individuals in close proximity to the skin for 2 minutes. The blood sample is easily collected; the micro-vacuum in the device allows a small amount of blood to flow into the attached sample tube, allowing the blood sample to be sent to the laboratory for testing in great ways, and many subjects indicate that there is no pain in the process.
The company has received an additional $3 million in funding from the US Department of Defense's Advanced Research Projects Agency to develop more advanced products that rely on a driving force that dominates the flow of small liquid streams. Surface tension can dominate at different scales. Gravity can also maintain the state of blood in its pipeline, regardless of whether the device is attached to the skin of the body.
Researcher David Beebe said that the development of the device is based on research on microfluidics. We are currently researching circulating tumor cells, and by developing this new device, it is possible to move blood in an open channel. Like moving blood in traditional closed channels, new technologies can greatly simplify the cumbersome manufacturing process and reduce costs.
Currently, this device can extract about 0.15 ml of blood samples, which are enough to detect the individual's cholesterol level, infection status, cancer cells and blood sugar levels. Although diabetic patients must perform multiple blood glucose tests every day, they are not the original ones. Market-oriented population, researcher Casavant said, although routine testing is very cheap, but it makes patients a little painful, and our new device is characterized by monitoring cancer or chronic infectious diseases for individuals who do not monitor frequently. For example, when you replace expensive equipment and purchase the new equipment, you only need to stay close to your arm for 2 minutes, then send the sample to the laboratory to wait for the test results.
Finally, the researchers pointed out that at first many investors were very suspicious of the efficacy of this device, and as we clearly analyzed its working principle, I believe many people will see the usefulness of the device, along with the device There are more and more funding for development, and we have reason to believe that the device will bring revolutionary progress in future research, which will greatly help patients' health monitoring.
Aluminum Foil Anti Slip Tape
Aluminum foil backed anti slip tape is a special anti slip tape that is designed for uneven surfaces and high traffic areas, it can be used instead of 3M 500 series, such as 3M 510 and 3M 530. The aluminum foil backing make the tape much more durable than general anti slip tape, and it has no memory so that it can remain its shape and conform to uneven surfaces. The aluminum foil has no stretchability which is different from PVC or PET plastic based, when a plastic stretches it wants to revert to its original state so will lift from an irregular substrate. It is widely used for stairs, ladders, loading ramps, platforms, diamond plating, flat surfaces with rivets or screw heads.
