An electronic device and a control method of an electronic device are provided. The control method includes obtaining an image on the diagnostic kit through a camera included in the electronic device, the obtaining of the image based on receiving a user command for photographing a diagnostic kit including at least one test line discolored according to a reaction between a sample collected from a body of a user and a reagent, and a plurality of tone distinction markers with tones different from one another, obtaining a first color value on the at least one test line included in the obtained image and a second color value on each of the plurality of tone distinction markers, obtaining a first deviation information on a photographing environment of the obtained image, correcting a first data to obtain a biometric information measurement value, and obtaining a diagnostic result corresponding to the measurement value.

The present disclosure relates to an oral testing assembly and method comprising a head portion, an elongated handle attached to the head portion, and a testing strip configured to be positioned on a scraping surface of the head portion. A cover member including a detection window is configured to be attached to the head portion to support the testing strip to the head portion such that portions of the testing strip are exposed through a sample inlet and the detection window. The head portion and testing strip are arranged to collect a sample from the mouth or tongue of a patient to be received at the sample inlet and results displayed at the detection window. The head portion includes a scraping wall protruding from the scraping surface. The head portion may include a reservoir positioned along the scraping surface adjacent the scraping wall.

A sampling interface may comprise an inlet port, an outlet port, and a sampling chamber between the inlet port and the outlet port. The apparatus may also comprise a sampling port and at least one split seal between the sampling port and the sampling chamber. The split seal may comprise a first sealing member and a second sealing member that converge to a sealing line. The apparatus may additionally include at least one fluid collection channel disposed interior to the split seal. A lateral flow strip for sampling fluid removed from a tissue site may comprise an acquisition surface and a migration medium fluidly coupled to the acquisition surface. At least one test medium may be fluidly coupled to the migration medium, and a liquid-impermeable cover may enclose the migration medium and the test medium. The acquisition surface is preferably not enclosed.

Methods and apparatus are provided to facilitate the minimally invasive removal of tissue and to facilitate the direct approach to anesthetizing a body wall of a patient. A pull-type cutting device also is disclosed to introduce an opening into the body wall to provide access for intra-chest surgical interventions, for example a minimally invasive biopsy technique as also described for excising target tissue from within a patient, including a nodule from within the patient's lung.

In an embodiment, the claimed invention includes an oral-fluid collection and testing device that is simple to operate. The device includes a body assembly and a cap assembly that are easy to handle by a user. A collection sponge projects from an end of the body assembly for absorbing the oral fluid of a donor, A cap assembly is easily aligned with the body assembly by way of visual alignment indicators on both the body and the cap. Once the cap is aligned with the body, a user simply pushes the cap onto the ‘body, which causes a first stage fluid, flow. More specifically, a buffer fluid is released from the cap and mixes with the oral fluid collected on the sponge—After waiting a short time* the cap is rotated, then pushed again, causing a second-stage fluid flow in which the sponge is compressed such that the buffer fluid/oral fluid exits the sponge and flows toward a. pair of test strips. A user can then easily view the test results by observing a visual indication, such as a color change of the test strips through a viewing window.

An ancillary saliva testing apparatus for the presence of a selected substance utilizing an internet connected electronic device with a camera for third party review, the electronic device also having electronic communication to the apparatus, the apparatus has an enclosure that accommodates an insertable saliva test element assembly that includes a test element casing that secures a saliva test strip within the casing. The enclosure includes color sensing circuitry for the saliva test strip and communication circuitry from the color sensing circuitry to the electronic device. Also, an user interface application in on the electronic device to document a user inserting the casing into the enclosure with the camera verifying the user identity via facial recognition, also the saliva test strip that includes both an identification code and change of state test result color code on the saliva test strip based on the user wetting the test strip with saliva.

The present disclosure is directed to indicating systems and methods for incontinence products. The indicating system may include an indicator panel for an incontinence product that is adapted to provide a qualitative or quantitative indication of a characteristic of a liquid absorbed by the indicator panel.

A sweat collection device includes a flexible body having a first, outwardly facing surface and a second, skin-facing surface, and a sweat collection channel formed in the body, the sweat collection channel having a first end defining a sweat inlet port, and a second end defining a sweat outlet port. The sweat inlet port and the sweat outlet port are configured to be closed and sealed such that the sweat collection device and the collected sweat therein may be stored and shipped.
