A team of researchers at the American University of Pennsylvania and Chinese Qiangtan have created an electronic device that can monitor a user's general health by analyzing race, according to the Science Daily website specializing in technology.
"We want to analyze the sweat that the body produces as a result of the daily effort or exposure to the sun's heat, because it contains many vital signs such as glucose, hydrogen ions, and other substances that help diagnose disease and detect health," says researcher Hanyo Cheng, a professor of mechanical engineering at the University of Pennsylvania. To the user in general. "
Cheng said that the device is a patch that is placed near the sweat glands, and contains small channels for the passage of sweat fluids through them, and each of these channels contains a chemical that interacts with sweat in order to measure the concentrations of different substances in the sweat. The result of the race analysis can be read by following the device itself or via an application that works on mobile phones.
The researchers believe that the device will be of great importance for the field of health care in the world, especially for athletes, as it can be used to measure excessive exposure to heat or adjust training doses to achieve the maximum benefit for players.
