Devices and methods of urinalysis for real-time monitoring of organ health

A method of using electrochemical methods of urinalysis in a toilet bowl, urinal, or urine collection container, comprising:

• providing a system for electrochemical urinalysis in a toilet bowl, urinal, or urine collection container, comprising:
• a test platform sized to fit within a urine collection apparatus in the form of one of a toilet bowl, urinal, or urine collection container, the test platform having two or more test wells capable of receiving urine introduced into the urine collection apparatus and automatically distributing required volumes of the urine to each test well, wherein each test well contains electrodes, conductive traces, and chemicals for electro-chemical tests to generate or alter electrical signals in presence of specific urinary analytes or biomarkers over time that is specific to analytes being investigated in a urine sample for disease diagnosis, disease progression monitoring, and/or organ health monitoring, and each test well is capable of testing for a different urinary analyte so that the test platform can simultaneously conduct tests for different analytes, wherein the test platform is made of paper with the electrodes and conductive traces printed on the paper, and the chemicals are provided on the paper, wherein the paper of the test platform is frustoconical with a larger open top end and a smaller closed bottom end;
• and
• an electronic reader that receives signals from the test wells in series or simultaneously, converts the signals to data values of analytes or ratios thereof, and is capable of collecting, storing, analyzing, and transmitting the data values to an external electronic device or cloud platform;
• introducing urine into the urine collection apparatus;
• receiving the signals at the electronic reader;
• converting the signals to data, collecting, storing, analyzing and transmitting the data from the electronic reader to the external electronic device or cloud platform;
• and
• monitoring the data at the external electronic device or cloud platform.

A system for electrochemical urinalysis in a toilet bowl, urinal, or urine collection container, comprising:

• a test platform sized to fit within a urine collection apparatus in the form of one of a toilet bowl, urinal, or urine collection container, the test platform having two or more test wells, wherein the test wells are differently sized and are capable of receiving urine introduced into the urine collection apparatus and automatically distributing required volumes of the urine to each test well, wherein each test well contains electrodes, conductive traces, and chemicals for electro-chemical tests to generate or alter electrical signals in presence of specific urinary analytes or biomarkers over time that is specific to analytes being investigated in a urine sample for disease diagnosis, disease progression monitoring, and/or organ health monitoring, and each test well is capable of testing for a different urinary analyte so that the test platform can simultaneously conduct tests for different analytes, wherein the test platform is made of paper with the electrodes and conductive traces printed on the paper, and the chemicals are provided on the paper, wherein the paper of the test platform is frustoconical with a larger open top end and a smaller closed bottom end, and the entire test platform is flushable;
• and
• an electronic reader that receives signals from the test wells in series or simultaneously, converts the signals to data values of analytes or ratios thereof, and is capable of collecting, storing, analyzing, and transmitting the data values to an external electronic device or cloud platform, wherein
• the electronic reader is a non-disposable electronic device mounted to an outside of the toilet bowl and connected to the test platform with wires.
