Described herein are variations of an analyte monitoring system, including an analyte monitoring device. For example, an analyte monitoring device may include an implantable microneedle array for use in measuring one or more analytes (e.g., glucose), such as in a continuous manner. The microneedle array may include, for example, at least one microneedle including a tapered distal portion having an insulated distal apex, and an electrode on a surface of the tapered distal portion located proximal to the insulated distal apex. At least some of the microneedles may be electrically isolated such that one or more electrodes is individually addressable.

Continuous analyte monitoring system with microneedle array

A method for circumscribing an insulating barrier region around a singular conductive microneedle structure or plurality of conductive microneedle structures adhered to a fixed substrate for the purpose of spatially defining a conduit for the routing of an electrical signal from the surface of said microneedle or microneedles to the posterior surface of the substrate is disclosed herein. A microneedle-based electrochemical biosensors structure comprises a substrate, a microneedle biosensor, a primary electrically conductive element, a secondary electrically conductive element and an electrically insulative annular barrier.

Methods for achieving an isolated electrical interface between an anterior surface of a microneedle structure and a posterior surface of a support structure

A skin-adorned physiological or biochemical sensing device is disclosed herein. The device preferably comprises a first substrate and a second substrate. The first substrate comprises an array of solid microneedles designed to penetrate a biological interface to access a physiological fluid or tissue. Each microneedle is capable of electrical interface with the physiological fluid or tissue. The second substrate comprises integrated circuitry designed to transduce at least one signal produced by an electrophysiological or electrochemical reaction. A sensing device is formed that is capable of interpreting the signal arising from the electrophysiological or electrochemical reaction to ascertain the level of some physiological or biochemical entity.

Heterogeneous integration of silicon-fabricated solid microneedle sensors and CMOS circuitry

Fault detection and diagnostics for a microneedle array based continuous analyte monitoring device are provided. The electrochemical sensors, including the electrodes of the analyte monitoring device configured for measuring one or more target analytes, may experience various faults during use of the analyte monitoring device. By modeling the sensors as an electrical network, measurements of the electrical network may be correlated with operational parameters of the sensor. The voltage at the counter electrode provides an indication of the resistance or impedance between the working electrode and the counter electrode and is used to identify the occurrence of faults occurring at the continuous analyte monitoring device.

Fault detection for microneedle array based continuous analyte monitoring device

A method and device to impart the ability to selectively quantify chemical/biochemical analytes occupying physiological fluids via an automated process that allow the precise and spatially-defined simultaneous deposition of a thin-film of polymer containing an immobilized biorecognition element dispersed therein. A tissue penetrating electrochemical sensor comprises at least one working electrode and at least one of a reference electrode and a counter electrode.

Tissue-penetrating electrochemical sensor featuring a co-electrodeposited thin film comprised of polymer and bio-recognition element

Methods, structures, devices and systems are disclosed for fabricating and implementing electrochemical biosensors and chemical sensors. In one aspect, a method of producing an epidermal biosensor includes forming an electrode pattern onto a coated surface of a paper-based substrate to form an electrochemical sensor, the electrode pattern including an electrically conductive material and an electrically insulative material configured in a particular design layout, and attaching an adhesive sheet on a surface of the electrochemical sensor having the electrode pattern, the adhesive sheet capable of adhering to skin or a wearable item, in which the electrochemical sensor, when attached to the skin or the wearable item, is operable to detect chemical analytes within an external environment.

Wearable electrochemical sensors

Techniques and systems are disclosed for implementing textile-based screen-printed amperometric or potentiometric sensors. The chemical sensor can include carbon based electrodes to detect at least one of NADH, hydrogen peroxide, potassium ferrocyanide, TNT or DNT, in liquid or vapor phase. In one application, underwater presence of chemicals such as heavy metals and explosives is detected using the textile-based sensors.
