Scientists develop implantable chips: warn before a disease

Release date: 2013-03-26


According to the British "Daily Mail" website reported on March 20, Swiss medical experts have said that they have developed a microchip that can be implanted under human skin tissue. The chip can monitor the health of the human body at any time and is expected to be available within 4 years.
Researchers refer to the chip as a "micro blood laboratory," which is only 14 millimeters long. Although small in size, it is fully functional, with 5 sensors, 1 radio transmission device and a power exchange system. It will notify the doctor by mobile phone signal after the human health changes.

According to reports, the device can monitor the health of the human body because the surface of each sensor is covered with an enzyme that can monitor changes in different substances in the human body, such as milk, glucose or adenosine triphosphate. “We can monitor every element, but enzymes have life-limiting limits, and we want to increase their time of use as much as possible,” said research scientist Giovanni Mikkeli.
At present, the monitoring function of the sensor surface enzymes can generally last for half a month, and some can even last for one month, which is enough for the study of many diseases. Due to its small size, its implantation and replacement is also very simple.
The research team at the Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, Switzerland, said the small device is very helpful for patients who are in the process of chemotherapy, and it can also alert patients to heart attacks by monitoring the relevant elements of the blood several hours in advance.
In addition, for some patients with chronic diseases, its role is also very large, because it can send out relevant warning signals before the body appears in the disease. "The potential of this system is huge, as long as the human pathology changes, it can It is monitored and it consumes very little energy," Mikkeli said.
The researchers said they hope to complete the entire research and development of this blood laboratory within four years and will be available for sale.

Amino Acid

Another important function of amino acids is to provide energy to the human body. Normally, a healthy body on a general diet will use carbohydrates as its main fuel, but when the main source is depleted due to strenuous exercise, protein and amino acids can be used as a last resort. Amino acids also play an important role in food taste. Protein doesn't have much taste, but each amino acid has its own taste, and combining them is one of the important factors that define the taste of food
