Abstract: Personal care compositions and methods for treating one or more dry skin conditions are disclosed. The composition may include a carrier, one or more plant oils, and a source of Aloe vera. The one or more plant oils and the source of Aloe vera may each be present in an effective amount to increase natural moisturizing factors in skin when applied thereto. The method for treating the one or more dry skin conditions may include contacting the personal care composition with skin. Contacting the personal care composition with the skin may increase an amount of natural moisturizing factors in the skin and/or increase an amount of Caspase-14 in the skin.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a detection apparatus, comprising a base layer, wherein the base layer comprises a groove for containing a testing element and a sample chamber for collecting a fluid sample. The detection apparatus can achieve fast, efficient and accurate detection of analytes in liquid samples, make operators to perform testing conveniently and freely, without causing incorrect results.

Abstract: The present invention provides an application of a melamine foam in sample collection or processing. A sampling head, a sampling block or a filter membrane prepared by using the melamine foam is used for collecting or processing a sample, which can significantly reduce adsorption of a target determinand or can significantly improve an elution effect of the target determinand to restore authenticity of the sample, thereby improving detection sensitivity of the target determinand and avoiding occurrence of false detection or missing detection.

Abstract: The present invention provides a detection device comprises a testing element and a transparent area, wherein the testing element comprises a detection area which is configured to detect a presence of an analyte in a liquid sample; the transparent area is configured to read the test result on the detection area through the transparent area; a part of the transparent area contacts a part of the detection area, or the detection area and the transparent area are arranged in one sealed space, thus to make the air in the sealed space not exchange with the air outside the sealed space; the scheme can reduce the mist to ensure the test result is displayed clearly.

Abstract: The present invention provides a detection device, and the device comprises a testing element, wherein the testing element comprises a detection area used for detecting a presence of an analyte in a liquid sample; and a transparent area through which the test result on the detection area is read, and the transparent area includes a hydrophilic area and a hydrophobic area. Thus, the detection device reduces formation of droplets on the transparent area is reduced, that is, it avoids formation of a mist layer on the transparent area; or avoids accumulation of small droplets on the transparent area, thus to make the result on the test area be clearly read.

Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus for collecting and detecting liquid samples comprising a first chamber and a second chamber. The first chamber is used for collecting liquid samples for initial detection, and the second chamber is used for collecting liquid samples for second confirmatory detection. The first chamber and second chamber of the apparatus are detachable. When a second confirmatory detection is necessary, the second chamber can be separated from the first chamber, and then sent to a detection agency for confirmatory detection. It can avoid the contamination of liquid samples caused by contacting with test strip of a traditional apparatus; thus, it can effectively reduce the space required for storing liquid samples and greatly reduce the risk of leakage of liquid sampled during transportation.
