A TINY BLOOD pH SENSOR DEVELOPED BY INDIAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, KHARAGHPUR students
IIT Kharagpur researchers have successfully developed tiny device to measure the pH of blood. The device works by measuring the imedance. The device relies on venous blood sampling for pH measurement.
The pH of a solution is a measure of the percentage of hydrogen ions available in a solution. The solution is said to be acidic, if the pH will be less than 7. The device was able to detect the pH of the blood in 10 seconds.
