from technology to volume production
Checking the blood glucose levels is an everyday part in life of many diabetics. There are various less invasive solutions under development which could be used to avoid this unpleasant task, and researchers from Fraunhofer Institute recently presented their solution in a form of a biosensor developed in cooperation with researchers from a Dutch medical technology firm NovioSense BV.
Unlike previously available bioelectric sensors which were too big, too imprecise and consumed too much power, the new biosensor developed by researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Microelectronic Circuits and Systems (Fraunhofer IMS) in Duisburg is much smaller and more durable.
