Abstract
A sensing device for detecting a characteristic of an analyte in a sample solution and method of making the same is provided. The device includes one or more sensors configured to measure a characteristic of an analyte in a sample. The device further includes a sample solution that contains the analyte and one or more interfering solutes, wherein the interfering solute reduces a performance characteristic of the one or more sensors. The device further includes a sensor solution in fluidic communication with the one or more sensors. The device further includes a hydrophobic barrier that separates the sample solution from the one or more sensors, wherein the hydrophobic barrier is permeable to the analyte and impermeable to the interfering solute, and wherein the hydrophobic barrier is in fluidic communication with the sample solution and the sensor solution.
