The testing equipment used is the latest technology developed by MBS Research Institute (Sanitary Laboratory) which is a blood testing institute, that can independently collect blood without damaging the blood cell.

It is a simple blood test with high precision, and speedy test results can be easily understood. With just a single drop from the fingertip, it can achieve the same high accuracy as the blood test at the medical institution.
