ELECTROCHEMICAL SENSORS AND METHODS FOR MAKING ELECTROCHEMICAL SENSORS USING ADVANCED PRINTING TECHNOLOGY

摘要

A sensor can be manufactured by printing a working electrode onto a substrate using aerosol jet printing. Sensing chemistry (e.g., enzyme-based ink that including detection chemistry) also can be printed onto the working electrode using aerosol jet printing. A reference electrode also can be printed on the substrate at a position spaced along the substrate from the working electrode. In certain examples, the substrate can be positioned within a lumen of a skin piercing member of a sensor module.
