Analytical Evaluation of Simulated Kidney-Disease Profiles: Comparison of a Portable Near-Infrared Spectrophotometer with a Benchtop FT-NIR

Article No results yet Peer reviewed

Key takeaways

Researchers tested a small, portable light-based scanner for kidney disease. They compared it to a larger, standard lab machine. The test used mixed blood samples, not real patients. The small scanner worked well in this lab setting. This is a device test, not a human trial.
