Have you ever heard the term trypanophobia? It refers to one type of phobia, the phobia will be afraid of needles or injections. As many as 20% of the people experiencing this phobia. Are you included in one of them? On April 2015, there is good news related to it. Researchers managed to find a way for blood sampling is not done by using a syringe, but this is done by means revoulisoner.

How do new blood sampling without needles.

Tasso Inc., a US company that is run by a graduate of the University of Misconsin-Madison, is a company that successfully developed tools for ping-pong ball that can draw blood without a needle.

A blood test using the tools of ping-pong ball is done by placing the device on the skin for 2 minutes, then the blood will be drawn through a "slight vacuum" that is attached to the tube. The blood sample can then be sent to a laboratory, either use mail service or delivery directly.

"This technology relies on the forces acting on the small circulation," according to vice president and co-founder Tasso Inc., Ben Casavant. "On this scale, the surface pressure is higher than gravity, it will make the blood remains in the channel, regardless of how you hold it. '

"Instead of piercing a vein, when the user holds the device to the skin, this tool will create a slight suction that will soon begin to draw blood from a lot of micro blood circulation known as capillaries."

What is the amount of blood that can be taken with the device.

This tool can extract blood around 0:15 cm3, sufficient for most laboratory tests, such as cholesterol testing, infection, cancer cells, and blood sugar. According to Stephanie Castillo in Medical Daily, those who have tried this tool states that the process of taking blood almost no pain at all.

When will these tools will be introduced to the market.

The company has been awarded a grant of 3 million USD by US Defenses advaced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to help release these tools to the market. This tool is predicted to enter the market in 2016, when the They received approval from the US Food and Drug Administration this year.

In the near future, hopefully we can hear how these tools work in more detail. If the team is successful marketing tool, it will be quite revolutionary.

"We see the need to test semi-frequently, or not regularly, to monitor the cancer or chronic diseases and infections," said Casavant. "Instead of buying expensive machinery or equipment, we deliver you this tool, you can put it in your hand for two minutes, then send your blood to a laboratory."

While the second picture shows a device which is placed on the wrist. Google also notes that these devices can be used manually, or it can be configured to automatically take blood samples.
