Tyumen State Medical University specialists have created a patented lancet-type diagnostic device that enables quick testing for five important diseases: HIV, syphilis, tuberculosis, and hepatitis B and C.
This device is easy to use – it does not require special medical training to perform the analysis. The design ensures single use, which completely eliminates the risk of infection when collecting biological material. The results of the study are displayed on special indicator strips.
It is planned to organize the distribution of the device through retail pharmacy chains and primary health care institutions. In the future, the developers intend to optimize the dimensions of the device to the size of a pen.
