Defang Technology Redefines Home Health with 2-Minute, 14-Parameter Urine Test

In recent years, China's in vitro diagnostics (IVD) market has experienced explosive growth.

According to statistics from the VCBeat Orange Database, there have been 56 financing deals in China’s IVD sector from 2022 through May 1. Amid the fervor in this track, routine urinalysis, as a barometer of human health and an optimal vehicle for non-invasive and painless testing, has become one of the focal points drawing industry attention.

Urine, as the body’s primary “liquid code,” contains a wealth of information reflecting disease risk, dietary patterns, physical activity levels, medication use, and alcohol consumption. Up to 7,206 indicators can be detected in urine, including numerous tumor markers, with more than 250 currently applicable in clinical practice. As technology advances, the secrets held within urine are being gradually unlocked.

Currently, most people undergo routine urinalysis as part of their annual health checkups. However, the sample collection process is often non-standardized, and the results only reflect short-term health status. Consequently, current practices are far from sufficient in terms of both serving the broader digital health market and achieving widespread adoption of routine urinalysis.

With the widespread adoption of smart toilets in millions of households and advancements in technology, urinalysis can now be performed at home. By leveraging artificial intelligence algorithms for timely detection and analysis of health indicators, these systems provide early health warnings, becomingChongqing Defang Technology Co., Ltd.(hereinafter referred to as“Defang Technology”) major innovation.

Defang Technology isA technology-driven enterprise integrating the R&D, manufacturing, sales, and after-sales services of home-based health IoT products and associated consumables, with strategic development focused on the broader health industry and big data informatics.The company has been honored with the titles of “Outstanding Service Provider in China’s Intelligent Technology Industry” and “Most Influential Brand in China’s Independent Innovation.”“Model Enterprise of the Healthy China Project Management Committee,”“Awards including Third Prize in the 3rd China Medical Device Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition, Third Prize in the 3rd Central State-Owned Enterprises Yixing Innovation and Creativity Competition, and recognition as a Chongqing Intellectual Property Advantage Enterprise.” Notably, the “3rd Central State-Owned Enterprises Yixing Innovation and Creativity Competition” was hosted by the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council. Defang Technology underwent rigorous selection over two years, from preliminary rounds and semifinals to the finals, ultimately earning high acclaim from expert judges for its innovative product capabilities.
