Research Abstract |
Many technologies are being pursued to develop novel glucose sensors, including non-invasive, continuous monitors. However, none of the devices in production at present meet the criteria for the ideal sensor. This investigation examined the possibility of miniaturization of photoacoustic glucose sensors using silicon micromachining technology. A prototype sensor was used to measure glucose solution concentration. The photoacoustic signal was linearly proportional to the glucose solution concentration in the rage of 0 to 1000mg/d.
