A visualizer for use with an immunoassay rapid diagnostic test (RDT) with fluorescent probes includes a housing sized to enclose the RDT, an opening in the housing for insertion of the RDT, a viewing window in the housing positioned to align with a result window in the RDT when inserted in the housing, a UV / visible / infrared light source inside the housing for illuminating fluorescent probes in the result window so they may be viewed through the viewing window, and a switch for activating the light source. An RDT incorporating a UV / visible / infrared light source within its housing is also disclosed.

Disclosed are computer systems and computer-implemented methods for rapid diagnostic test result interpretation platform employing computer vision. The system can visually analyze the test device in real-time by receiving image streams of the test device from the camera system. The detection system can be used to identify the test result in the test region. In some embodiments, the test result is binary (e.g., Positive / Negative). In some embodiments, the test result is in semi-quantitative formats (e.g., 1-10). The test result can be sent back to the user, operator, HMO, or physician for further confirmation, recording, and medical treatment decision / follow-up. The detection system can close the loop between the user of the test device and the HMO / physician for recording of the test result and the provision of medical treatment / follow-up.

A reagent carrier includes: a cap configured to fit on an opening of a reaction vessel; and a reagent confined by the cap. The cap may be configured to release the reagent when a user manipulates the cap while the cap is fitted on the opening of the reaction vessel. For example, the reagent may be released when the user twists the cap from a first position to a second position or when the user pushes on a surface of the cap. The cap may be configured to seal the opening of the reaction vessel when the cap is fitted on the opening of the reaction vessel. In some implementations, the cap may be a blister cap containing the reagent. In some implementations, the cap may include a cage containing the reagent. In some implementations, the cap may include a deformable structure containing the reagent.

The application relates to a quartz accelerometer watch core temperature coefficient rapid screening test tool and method, and aims to solve the technical problems of high cost and difficult batch production caused by the disassembly of the watch during the whole watch test of the existing quartz accelerometer, and the scrapping of part of the devices. The tool comprises a process shell, a compression nut, a first positioning ring and a second positioning ring respectively sleeved at two ends of a to-be-tested watch core, and a process circuit. The first positioning ring and the second positioning ring are coaxially arranged in the process shell from the lower end to the upper end, the terminal post of the to-be-tested watch core is located in the second positioning ring, the process shell is provided with a scale line for aligning the scale line of the to-be-tested watch core; the compression nut is a stepped column structure, the small-diameter section of the compression nut extends into the process shell and is connected with the process shell, and the lower end surface of the compression nut compresses the upper end surface of the second positioning ring; the process circuit is installed on the large-diameter section of the compression nut, is electrically connected with an external test device, and is electrically connected with the lead wire of the terminal post of the to-be-tested watch core. A test method based on the tool is further disclosed.

Urinary tract infections (UTis) remain one of the most common bacterial infections worldwide, and they are becoming increasingly resistant to many first-line antibiotics typically prescribed to treat these infections. Multidrug resistant bacteria were once limited to the walls of hospitals and now are rampant in the communities. Provided herein are reagent tests that can be used to identify specific types of antibiotic resistant microorganisms in a sample, and methods of use thereof.

A framework for a few-shot learning method is disclosed. In a first part, self-supervision and classification supervision are used to train a feature extractor. An example self-supervision method comprises running grayscale images through an edge filter, normalizing the filtered images, setting the normalized images to ground truth, generating feature-extracted images, using a decoder to reconstruct images from the feature-extracted images, determining a loss between the reconstructed images and the ground truth images, and using the loss to update parameters of the feature extractor. In a second part, a few-shot adaptation process is performed to adapt the model to a novel rapid test kit.
