Abstract
A method of testing one or more analyte sensors each comprising a first electrode; a second electrode; and a material layer disposed on or above the first electrode; the method including (a) applying a voltage potential to the first electrode with respect to the second electrode; (b) measuring a test signal comprising an output current from the first electrode that results from the application of the voltage potential; (c) using the test signal from (b) to observe an electrical characteristic of the analyte sensor; and (d) correlating the electrical characteristic a parameter associated with an electrochemical response of the analyte sensor to an analyte, wherein the testing is under dry conditions without exposure of the electrodes to a fluid containing the analyte or an in-vivo environment containing the analyte.
