Scientists in US have invented an injectable microchip which is able to monitor the levels of alcohol and drugs in your body.
Developed by engineers from Jacobs School of Engineering at the University of San Diego, it is hoped that the tiny chip will one day be used to help patients with addictions.
Currently, breathalysers and blood tests are the most common ways to monitor blood alcohol levels but both require patient cooperation and the expertise of a trained professional.
As such, this invention could prove invaluable to those in recovery by allowing them to easily measure and reduce the level of substances like alcohol in their body.
“This is a proof-of-concept and an enabling tool that would slot into a larger ecosystem for treatment," Drew Hall, project lead and an electrical engineering professor at Jacobs School of Engineering at the University of San Diego
