• Research summary

  Nearly all blood testing is done by putting a syringe into a vein, extracting blood into tubes and then passing those tubes to a laboratory (sometimes off-site) where the blood is processed for many hours or days. Currently, this is the only method available to most health professionals.

  Jupiter Diagnostics is developing the Calisto Multitest System, a low-cost, small, portable machine that processes the capillary blood from a finger prick, aiming to offer a safe alternative to venous / syringe blood testing that is easy to use. The study aims to thoroughly test the accuracy and reliability of the Calisto Multitest System, using 6 frequently performed hormonal blood tests.
