Abstract

Continuous glucose monitoring is necessary to minimize glycemic fluctuations and improve the quality of life of diabetic individuals by providing them with real-time glucose variations in response to diet, lifestyle, and medications. Herein, we focus on developing a three-electrode electrochemical system with optimized sensing chemistry for continuous glucose monitoring applications. We designed a test setup to ensure a constant flow of the analyte and mimic glucose diffusion in the interstitial space. We fabricated platinum electrodes using a one-step, conventional microfabrication process and tested their suitability for electrochemical sensing. The study demonstrates a proof-of-concept continuous glucose sensor capable of monitoring glucose levels in vitro for up to 7 days, with a minimal impact from interference molecules.
