Fed up of checking your sugar levels using the painful finger-prick test? Soon measuring sugar levels could be as easy as using an iPhone. This breakthrough research from American Chemical Society's (ACS') reveals a new protein that would allow diabetics to check their blood sugar from their iPhones. Sylvia Daunert Ph.D from University of Miami designed a protein that will make sugar level testing less painful with high precision. She invented the 'designer protein' by changing the genetic code that senses glucose levels in the body. She further modified it by adding synthetic immuno acids to give protein better sensing
