Amy Tenderich over at Diabetes Mine reviews some of the interesting new drugs and devices she got a chance to see at the recent ADA 68th Annual Scientific Session conference in San Francisco. Of particular note is the OnQ all-in-one glucose testing package from Intuity Medical out of Sunnyvale, California. The device, yet to be approved by the FDA or EU’s bureaucrats, features an innovative sampling system that pricks and sucks blood directly into an internal testing strip, effectively eliminating the unpleasant steps of manually pricking and then bringing the blood up to the meter.

The Personal UV Monitor from Oregon Scientific is the only tool you’ll need to know at exactly what second to run for cover on days when the Ozone layer is on vacation. Sunbathers can use the power of science to maximize their tans and minimize burns.

To set up your personal exposure timer, enter the SPF of the sunscreen you have on, and your skin type (ranging anywhere from “alabaster” to “distinctly pigmented”). Now when out in the sun hit the UV button , and the UV sensor will detect the current UV level. Now you can sizzle at ease knowing that your monitor will beep when it’s time for you to set yourself on a cooling rack.
