[Diabetes-Talk] nist scientist at work

[Jude DaShiell]

They have come up with a way to use a test strip on a body and the
magnetometer on your smart phone to read PH levels and blood sugar and the
accuracy is to within millionths of a mohl which is good enough for
molecular measurements in laboratories.  The strips use hydrogel and a
couple magnets.  The only problem the scientists have now is to figure out
what storage conditions are acceptable for these strips.  Temperature
limits and humidity limits being a couple.  As things stand test strips
get made defective by bad transport and bad storage conditions and those
do become unuseable that way.
