Northwestern’s John Rogers has developed a wearable, sweat analyzing patch. The flexible microfluidic device uses colorimetric biochemical assays and integrates smartphone image capture analysis to monitor lactate, glucose, chloride ion concentrations, and pH. The wearable, with sports, military, and disease monitoring applications, can be adapted to test tears and saliva.
Professor Rogers will be a keynote speaker at Wearable Tech + Digital Health + NeuroTech Silicon Valley on February 7-8, 2017 at Stanford University — co-sponsored by the Stanford Wearable Electronics Initiative (e-WEAR).
