Provided herein are devices, kits, systems, and methods for collecting samples for analytical analysis and the safe disposal of sample collection devices after their use. The devices, kits, systems, and methods find use, for example, for disposing of biohazard materials by users in settings that may not be equipped with the professional biohazard disposal systems of laboratories, hospitals, and medical clinics.

An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a liquid collector including: an absorber including an elastic material and capable of absorbing liquid in contact with the absorber; a support that supports the absorber; and a tank that receives the liquid discharged from the absorber when the absorber is compressed.

A biomaterial collection device can include a wire that includes a functional member including a proximal end, a distal end, a first flat surface and a second flat surface opposing the first surface. The functional member can be configured to fit within a body lumen. The functional member can include binding elements configured to bind circulating biomolecules and cells. The functional member can include curved portions that form revolutions around the longitudinal axis of the device.

A detection system can include a device, a circuit, and at least one indicator. The device can include polymer needle having a distal end and a proximal end. A needle lumen can be extended along a longitudinal axis of the polymer needle. The distal end can include an insertion tip. An elongate sleeve can include a first end and a second end. The polymer needle can be located within an inner bore of the elongate sleeve. The insertion tip of the polymer needle can be disposed at a distance from the elongate sleeve. A first electrode can be coupled to the device and a second electrode can be electrically isolated from the first electrode. The circuit can be configured to provide a signal based on an electrical characteristic between the first electrode and the second electrode. At least one indicator can be communicatively coupled to the circuit and configured to provide an output based on the signal.

Systems, methods, and new file formats are provided for printing 3D microstructures. In some implementations, a new file format is provided that defines 3D objects by a wireframe model expressed as a collection of wires. Because wires and their parameters are defined within the new file format, objects may be processed more efficiently and quickly to support 3D rendering operations. Such methods may be used to print new articles, such as eyelashes, bushes, swabs and other novel items.

The present invention discloses a disposable negative-pressure anterior chamber Paracentesis syringe which belongs to the technical field of medical supplies. It comprises nine parts, including a needle cap, a Paracentesis syringe, a needle base, an internal needle, a protective cover of the internal needle, an airlock, a needle tube, a collection tube and a collection tube rack. The invention has the advantages that it fixes the Paracentesis syringe during puncture and limits the depth of the needle insertion, releases the aqueous humor slowly to prevent a sudden drop of the intraocular pressure, reduces the risk of the intraocular infection by separating the anterior chamber from outside and the collection tube can collect and store the aqueous humor directly.

The present disclosure relates to an ingestible device for sampling of the gastrointestinal tract. In particular, the device comprises an oral delivery capsule comprising a container having on the inside a hydrogel pre-polymer. The hydrogel prepolymer is capable of polymerising in situ, such as within the gastrointestinal tract, thereby collecting a sample of the gastrointestinal lumen by absorbing the lumen and its contents into the formed hydrogel.

The present invention provides a capsule for fluid sampling and drug delivery including: an enclosure; a sampling/drug delivery assembly, including a storage chamber arranged in the enclosure, a first one-way element and a second one-way element communicating with outside of the capsule and the storage chamber, and a pump changing pressure in the storage chamber, wherein the first one-way element and the second one-way element have same direction of access; and a control module, including a microprocessor in communication with the pump. The capsule can realize multiple times of sampling and drug delivery by means of control flow direction of sample or drug through the first one-way element and the second one-way element, and by changing the pressure of the storage chamber through the pump.
