Image: A highly portable personal diagnostic device has been developed in the form of a ring, the “Hoope,” worn on the thumb during testing. Initially the ring will enable rapid early detection of the sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and trichomoniasis (Photo courtesy of Hoope).

Ring with Lab-on-a-Chip Technology Rapidly Diagnoses STDs in a Single Blood Test

A low-cost, point-of-care and personal diagnostics thumb-ring has been successfully developed to test for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) such as syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and trichomoniasis, transmitting data to a smartphone where an app quickly presents the results.  More...
