IMPLANTABLE VASCULAR SYSTEM BIOSENSOR WITH GROWN CAPILLARY BEDS AND USES THEREOF

摘要

An implantable biocompatible biosensor is described herein. The biosensor includes a chip layer including a plurality of holes fabricated vertically there through, a power source, one or more sensors on the chip layer and coupled to the power source and a hydrogel matrix including one or more angiogenesis stimulating factors in contact with the chip layer. The stimulating factors stimulate growth of organic material through the plurality of holes when the biosensor is implanted in a subject.
