Russia will trial production of new blood glucose detection equipment, patients can be free from the pain of blood draw

Peter Babovich, an associate doctor of physics and mathematics in Ukraine, has designed ainstrument that can determine the concentration of glucose in the blood in seconds
However, since no enterprises willing to invest in research and development can be found in Ukraine, this promising invention has had to be transferred to Russia for further development and developmentThe device can protect diabetics from blood pumpingIt consists of a simple plastic clip with a compact receiver, diode and digital display controller and batteryThe clip is fixed to the patient's ear and exposed to infrared light, the concentration of glucose in the blood is accurately displayed on the controllerNot long ago, a U.Scompany was working on a similar instrument, and simulations proved that the two instruments work the same way, but Ukrainian scientists' inventions are simpler, more reliable and less expensive to manufactureAt the same time, because U.Scompanies use laser diodes with strong light radiation, it can also cause damage to patients'vision, and it can be replaced every three months at a cost of $35 to $50 eachAfter 600 clinical trials
at the StateHospital in Ukraine, the error rate of the new blood glucose test ingress was 15%, compared with 25% for traditional blood testsIt has been revealed that Peter Babovich had to sell the technology to Russian companies because he could not find research and development funding in UkraineThe company plans to trial 180,000 units in Russia, with each set expected to sell for $200(Cheng Gang)
