A glucose sensor is a tiny electrode that measures your glucose levels. It sits under the skin in your interstitial fluid. Glucose sensors are easily inserted using an automatic insertion device : a needle is used to insert the glucose sensor. The needle is then removed, leaving just the tiny flexible electrode under the skin. The glucose sensor is then connected to a transmitter so that readings can be transmitted to your insulin pump.

Un capteur de glucose est une petite électrode qui mesure votre taux de glucose. Il est placé sous la peau dans le fluide interstitiel. Les capteurs de glucose sont facilement insérés à l'aide d'un dispositif d'insertion automatique : une aiguille est utilisée pour insérer le capteur de glucose. L'aiguille est ensuite retirée, ne laissant que la petite électrode flexible sous la peau. Le capteur de glucose est ensuite connecté à un transmetteur pour que les lectures soient transmises à votre pompe à insuline.

This paper describes the use of amphilic polyelectrolytes for protein immobilization. Monomolecular films of glucose oxydase(GO) and monoamine oxydase(MAO) stabilized by ampiphilic polyelectrolytes were performed on a water surface in a Langmuir-Blodgett trough. The compressed films containing the enzymes were transferred onto the surface of a polypropylene membrane of a Clark electrode according to the Langmuir-Schaefer method.

Cependant, certains types de culture cellulaire nécessitent une pression différente. Celle-ci pourra être réglée grace à une électrode de Clark qui gèrera l'ouverture de vannes à oxygène ou à azote.
