Cloth-Based Microfluidic Analytical Device (UCAD)
Embedded in Sanitary Napkin for On-Site Urine Analysis
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION / FEATURES
The microfluide technology used can reduce the cost of routine testing because it uses only a small amount of reagent for testing. It facilitates the Diagnostic Laboratory and patients in the routine test process because its durable fabric structure material is made from microfluid-based analytical tools that can be biodegradable and believed to be safe.
NEEDS
The need for alternative cleaning liner products for human use based on fabric structure materials that are believed to be safe and of good quality
APPROACH
Cloth-based Microfluidic Analytical Device (UCAD) embedded in Sanitary Napkin
The product is made from sustainable raw material and also biodegradable
Cloth structural material for fabricating the embeddable microfluidic cloth-based analytical device.
Using cotton fabrics and wax as tow-cost basic materials with batik-inspired fabrication technique.
The device is embedded in wearable sanitary products
