Abstract :
This paper describes the effect of various glucose concentrations in normal and diabetic human blood serums mixed with intralipid phantoms. Amplitude modulated ultrasound and infrared techniques were utilized here. Modulated ultrasound causes signature specific molecular vibrations through the area of its propagation. The infrared light of specific wavelength is used here to detect the target glucose molecules. The infrared photo sensor detects the resultant signal and undergoes series of signal processing steps to yield the output value. The trend obtained from the result indicates that human diabetic blood serum occupies highest peak values in Fast Fourier Transform domain as compared to the normal human blood serum peak values. The proposed method provides a new dimension for noninvasive blood glucose measurement techniques. Noninvasive method for blood glucose detection is the need of hour. Tight control regimen with noninvasive glucometer will change the way of living of the diabetes affected population.
