“…The prototype of wearable saliva biosensors for health care was the traditional paperbased saliva test strips, which collected saliva from subjects, followed by analyzing the responding targets with visual colorimetry or electrochemistry. 90,91 The detection of glucose and cortisol content in saliva was relatively easier by the test strips based on the colorimetric reaction. To achieve continuous monitoring, paper-based saliva test strips were replaced by wearable 3D-printed microfluidic paper-based silicone braces (μPADs).…”

Fatigue causes deleterious effects to physical and mental health of human being and may cause loss of lives. Therefore, the adverse effects of fatigue on individuals and the society are massive. With the ever‐increasing frequency of overtraining among modern military and sports personnel, timely, portable and accurate fatigue diagnosis is essential to avoid fatigue‐induced accidents. However, traditional detection methods require complex sample preparation and blood sampling processes, which cannot meet the timeliness and portability of fatigue diagnosis. With the development of flexible materials and biosensing technology, wearable biosensors have attracted increased attention to the researchers. Wearable biosensors collect biomarkers from noninvasive biofluids, such as sweat, saliva, and tears, followed by biosensing with the help of biosensing modules continuously and quantitatively. The detection signal can then be transmitted through wireless communication modules that constitute a method for real‐time understanding of abnormality. Recent developments of wearable biosensors are focused on miniaturized wearable electrochemistry and optical biosensors for metabolites detection, of which, few have exhibited satisfactory results in medical diagnosis. However, detection performance limits the wide‐range applicability of wearable fatigue diagnosis. In this article, the application of wearable biosensors in fatigue diagnosis has been discussed. In fact, exploration of the composition of different biofluids and their potential toward fatigue diagnosis have been discussed here for the very first time. Moreover, discussions regarding the current bottlenecks in wearable fatigue biosensors and the latest advancements in biochemical reaction and data communication modules have been incorporated herein. Finally, the main challenges and opportunities were discussed for wearable fatigue diagnosis in the future.

“…SAT is noninvasive, on the spot screen test, which gives quantitative results in fewer than five minutes using a saliva sample [1]. It takes less than 20 seconds to show the color change when the ethyl alcohol concentration is greater than 0.02% [2]. This test has the recognition of Clinical Laboratories Improvement Amendments (CLIA), Food and Drug Agency (FDA), Health Canada and Department of Transportation (DOT) of the United States [1].…”

“…SAT strip contains tetramethylbenzidine, alcohol oxidase, peroxidase and proteins. The SAT strip is based on the high specificity of alcohol oxidase for ethyl alcohol in the presence of peroxidase and enzyme substrate such as tetramethylbenzidine [2]. With the presence of ethyl alcohol, a color change occurs in tetramethylbenzidine and it quantifies the alcohol level.…”

Novel tools for assessment of drunken driving: are they legal within the Sri Lankan jurisdiction?

Digital breathalyzer and the saliva alcohol test have become modern tools to detect drunken driving and widely used by forensic physicians in teaching and general hospitals in Sri Lanka. This paper appraises the legal validity of the digital breathalyzer and the saliva alcohol test within the Sri Lankan Jurisdiction. Saliva alcohol test is noninvasive, on the spot screen test, which gives quantitative results in fewer than five minutes using a saliva sample. Digital breathalyzer is also a reliable tool to detect high, moderate and low alcohol intake. Both these tests have been approved and certified by worldwide organizations and have received international recognition. Their usage has been validated in many other jurisdictions. However. according to the Motor Traffic Act of Sri Lanka, the breath test for alcohol shall be carried out by a police officer. Therefore, opinions framed by forensic physicians for the cases of drunken driving by means of the digital breathalyzer, is contrary with the current law of the country. Neither the binding judgement of Nalinda Kumara Vs Officer-In-Charge of Police, Kandy nor the Motor Traffic Act of Sri Lanka speak about an assessment of blood alcohol level using saliva. Therefore, using saliva alcohol test and framing opinions on it has no legality and could be challenged in a court of law. Considering the importance of these novel tools for a fair administration of justice, its validation should be done by amending the Motor Traffic Act of Sri Lanka and related regulations, without any delay.
