Self-Calibrating Electro-chemical Sensors for Wearable/Implantable Sensors

Researchers at Purdue University have developed self-calibrating electro-chemical sensors for wearable or implantable applications. While traditional electro-chemical sensors work well in laboratory conditions, they fall short in real-world applications where they face changing environments and cannot be regularly calibrated. Purdue's approach uses a sensor configuration that decouples environmental changes from the analyte measurements. This results in a sensor that is both more accurate and self-calibrating. Applications of this technology include uses in wearable/implantable technology, water monitoring and treatment, and agriculture.
