Long-term cyclic use of a sample collector for toilet-based urine analysis

Urine analysis via a toilet-based device can enable continuous health monitoring, a transformation away from hospital-based care towards more proactive medicine. To enable reliable sample collection for a toilet-attached analyzer, here a novel sample collector is proposed. The applicability of the p...

description Urine analysis via a toilet-based device can enable continuous health monitoring, a transformation away from hospital-based care towards more proactive medicine. To enable reliable sample collection for a toilet-attached analyzer, here a novel sample collector is proposed. The applicability of the proposed sample collector is validated for long-term use. Geometric parameters of the 3D-printed sample collector are optimized. The collected and leftover volumes are quantified for a range of urination speeds and design parameters. For long-term cyclic use, the protein concentrations of samples are quantified and the effectiveness of washing the sample collector is assessed.
