Know Labs recently unveiled the prototype for its non-invasive, portable glucose monitoring device. The device incorporates the company's proprietary body-radio frequency identification (Bio-RFID) technology — meaning its sensors deploy radio waves that travel through the skin to find and measure molecular signatures in the blood.
Newton Photonics continues to slowly and doggedly develop a noninvasive blood glucose monitor – a much sought-after technology that no researcher or company has yet to develop successfully. It focuses on optical sensing technology, using light scattering techniques to gauge blood sugar levels without having to break the skin.

A specialty drug is a class of prescription medications used to treat complex, chronic or rare medical conditions. Although this classification was originally intended to define the treatment of rare, also termed “orphan” diseases, affecting fewer than 200,000 people in the US, more recently, specialty drugs have emerged as the cornerstone of treatment for chronic and complex diseases such as cancer, autoimmune conditions, diabetes, hepatitis C, and HIV/AIDS.
