Scientists have now discovered a painless method for diabetics to test their blood sugar levels by examining the amounts of glucose in their saliva. The new approach was created by academics from the University of Newcastle in Australia, according to Reuters. Paul Dastoor, a physics professor at the university, is the project's creator. A biosensor is basically a strip that monitors glucose levels in saliva.
