Glucosenz

Glucosenz is the world’s first clinically tested non-invasive blood screening prototype. It works by using photonics, electronics, and software technologies to detect, analyse and predict blood glucose level from the blood capillaries of the human thumb without piercing the skin. The device is a result of a seven-year research and development by MIMOS’ photonics technology laboratory. Ethical approval for the device was obtained from the Malaysia Medical Device Association; Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM)’s Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Cyberjaya and the UKM Medical Centre (HUKM).
