Year: 2024

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: We have developed an ingestible electronic-free targeted sampling (TS) capsule for the mapping of gut bacteria.We have demonstrated the successful sampling and sealing of the capsules using a hydrogelbased mechanism to ensure the preservation of the sample throughout the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.
