In research conducted on pigs, the inch-long, self-powered biosensor proved that it could continuously monitor glucose in the small intestine.
UC San Diego has created an experimental “smart pill” that continuously monitors the inside of the small intestine, work that could lead to better ways to spot and treat gastro-intestinal disorders, including inflammatory bowel disease and diabetes.
The researchers will now try to find ways to make the smart pill smaller so that it can be easily swallowed by humans. They’ll also make it capable of taking a greater variety of readings.— a long, thin tube with a camera that is typically threaded through a person’s mouth and throat, down into their digestive tract. It provides a limited, short-term look at a person’s condition.
“But you can’t access the gut without doing an endoscopy, which means you have to put the patient under. They stick a tube all the way down. It’s very painful.
