  • Abstract
    In this paper, a flexible glucose sensor with gold electrodes sandwiched between two polydimethyle siloxane (PDMS) layers is presented. PDMS is used as a flexible and bio-compatible sensor substrate material. Furthermore, PDMS is optically transparent and haemocompatible which is very important for implantable sensors.
