Salivary Fluoride Detection Kit

Type:  Product
IPR Status:  Others
Application/uses: 

The indigenous salivary fluoride level detection kit and sensor station is unprecedented in its kind towards diagnosis of salivary fluoride level for the welfare and betterment of the society.

Salient Technical Competing Features: 

The salivary fluoride detection kit has mainly two components:
1. Solution Kit: After synthesization a simple chemical compound that could exclusively detect fluoride from human saliva. The solution kit has been prepared by employing this chemical compound where a colour chart has been provided for the convenience of the users. One can easily operate and determine the range of fluoride level present in the body by simply tallying the colour change of the solution with the provided colour scale in the sachet.
2. Sensor station: The developed sensor station has the potential to transmit the vivid transition in colour after mixing the saliva and the chemosensor into a readable digital output signal. This is immensely helpful since a person by own can carry out the test without the aid of any trained personnel or experts in related domain. This sensor station has been fabricated for the application in community level.

Competing Features:

  • User friendly
  • Light weighted
  • Portable
  • The solution kit is available at a very low cost (Rs. 3/unit)
  • Methodology is very simple
  • It can be deployed as a kiosk in any rural hospital/ school/ heath centre at an affordable cost and with a user friendly manual operation.
