Kidney Stone Dissolution By Tetherless, Enzyme‐Loaded, Soft Magnetic Miniature Robots
Wireless magnetic robots are developed for kidney stone dissolution. The robots navigate through a urinary tract model from bladder and ureter to renal pelvis with the help of external magnetic fields. The filaments are loaded with urease enzyme which catalyzes urea to carbon dioxide and ammonia, thereby increasing pH to basic regime and supporting ...

Evaluation of an automated urine chemistry reagent‐strip analyzer
AbstractWe evaluated the Miles Inc., Clinitek Atlas Automated Urine Chemistry Analyzer for 11 tests: bilirubin, color, glucose, ketones, leukocyte esterase, nitrite, occult blood, pH, protein, specific gravity, and urobilinogen. The instrument uses a roll of reagent strips affixed to a clear plastic support; urine specimens are automatically pipetted ...
