Book Designing Microwave Sensors for Glucose Concentration Detection in Aqueous and Biological Solutions

Download or read book Designing Microwave Sensors for Glucose Concentration Detection in Aqueous and Biological Solutions written by Carlos G. Juan and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-06-14 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a comprehensive study covering the design and application of microwave sensors for glucose concentration detection, with a special focus on glucose concentration tracking in watery and biological solutions. This book is based on the idea that changes in the glucose concentration provoke variations in the dielectric permittivity of the medium. Sensors whose electrical response is sensitive to the dielectric permittivity of the surrounding media should be able to perform as glucose concentration trackers. At first, this book offers an in-depth study of the dielectric permittivity of water–glucose solutions at concentrations relevant for diabetes purposes; in turn, it presents guidelines for designing suitable microwave resonators, which are then tested in both water–glucose solutions and multi-component human blood plasma solutions for their detection ability and sensitivities. Finally, a portable version is developed and tested on a large number of individuals in a real clinical scenario. All in all, the book reports on a comprehensive study on glucose monitoring devices based on microwave sensors. It covers in depth the theoretical background, provides extensive design guidelines to maximize sensitivity, and validates a portable device for applications in clinical settings.

Book Glucose sensing Receptor in Pancreatic Beta cells

Download or read book Glucose sensing Receptor in Pancreatic Beta cells written by Itaru Kojima and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-05-31 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 1970s, there has been much discussion about the “glucoreceptor” and “substrate site” and which of these two is the dominant theory, but new findings on the glucose-sensing receptor have now shed new light on the “glucoreceptor theory.” This volume reviews recent advances concerning the glucose-sensing receptor in pancreatic beta-cells. The history of research into pancreatic beta-cells is long and complex; accordingly, the first chapters present the history of this field and explain the hypothesis of insulin secretion mechanisms: “glucoreceptor theory”. Subsequent chapters examine the function and activity of the glucose-sensing receptor in pancreatic beta-cells, such as identification, channel pathway, receptor signal and physiological role. Readers will gain a thorough understanding of the glucose-sensing receptor and glucose metabolism in pancreatic beta-cells, new insights into the pathophysiology of diabetes, and learn about new targets for the treatment of diabetes.

Book Nanomaterials in Glucose Sensing

Download or read book Nanomaterials in Glucose Sensing written by Krishna Burugapalli and published by Momentum Press. This book was released on 2013-10-24 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The smartness of nano-materials is attributed to their nanoscale and subsequently unique physicochemical properties and their use in glucose sensing has been aimed at improving performance, reducing cost and miniaturizing the sensor and its associated instrumentation. So far, portable (handheld) glucose analysers were introduced for hospital wards, emergency rooms and physicians' offices; single-use strip systems achieved nanolitre sampling for painless and accurate home glucose monitoring; advanced continuous monitoring devices having 2 to 7 days operating life are in clinical and home use; and continued research efforts are being made to develop and introduce increasingly advanced glucose monitoring systems for health as well as food, biotechnology, cell and tissue culture industries. Nanomaterials have touched every aspect of biosensor design and this chapter reviews their role in the development of advanced technologies for glucose sensing, and especially for diabetes. Research shows that overall, nanomaterials help address the problems with conventional optical and electrochemical biosensors, by enhancing the preferential detection of glucose or its oxidation products through better electron transfer kinetics, sensitivity and response time, while lowering the operating over-voltages for energy efficiency and avoid interference. The reproducible production of nano-materials and nano-structures at low cost is vital for the successful development of nano-technologies for glucose sensing. Several products, especially, home glucose monitoring devices, use nano-materials, but the need for reliable long-term CGM is still unmet. Nano-materials and nano-technologies have an important role in achieving the long-awaited CGM technology.

Book Finite Element Modeling of Dermally implanted Enzymatic Microparticle Glucose Sensors

Download or read book Finite Element Modeling of Dermally implanted Enzymatic Microparticle Glucose Sensors written by Saniya Ali and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the rising prevalence of diabetes, effective means of successful management of blood glucose levels are increasingly important. To improve on the ease of measurements, new technology is being developed to enable less invasive measurements. Some recent efforts have focused on the development of optical microscale glucose sensing systems based on the encapsulation of glucose oxidase within microspheres coated with polyelectrolyte multilayer nanofilms. In such sensors, a phosphorescent oxygen indicator is also co-encapsulated with the enzyme inside so that when glucose is present, glucose oxidase within the sensor reduces the local oxygen levels, causing a corresponding change in the luminescence intensity of the sensors. To test the aforementioned factors, a two-substrate, 2D FEM model of microscale optical glucose sensors in the dermis was developed. The model was used to predict the response time and sensitivity of glucose sensors with varying number and spacing of particles distributed in the dermis and varying physiological characteristics of the surrounding tissue; specifically, capillary density, blood vessel location relative to sensor, and glucose and oxygen consumption in tissue. Simulations were conducted to determine the magnitude of the change in the response time of sensors. Because the steady-state oxygen concentration within the sensors for a given blood glucose level determines the signal output, steady-state concentration of oxygen within sensors and the surrounding tissue for the entire physiological glucose range was evaluated. The utility of the model to predict the performance and efficacy of the sensors in the event of a host response to the foreign body implant was also evaluated. Simulations were performed to evaluate changes in sensor response and sensitivity in the occurrence of inflammation and progression of fibrous encapsulation of various thickness and density. The results from these simulations have provided knowledge on the impact of physiological factors that can potentially degrade sensor function in vivo. Our results indicate that upon the occurrence of a host response, sensitivity is reduced while range is extended. Furthermore, using the model we have been able to determine which conditions in vivo improve response time, sensitivity, and the linear response range for these sensors.
