A novel minimally invasive way to measure blood glucose concentration is proposed by combining interstitial fluid
transdermal extraction and surface plasma resonance (SPR) detecting. 55K Hz low-frequency ultrasound pulse is applied
for less than 30 seconds to enhance the skin permeability and then interstitial fluid is extracted out of skin by vacuum.
The mathematical model to express the correlation between interstitial fluid glucose and blood glucose is also developed
by considering the changes of the skin conductivity. The glucose concentration in the interstitial fluid is determined
using an optical SPR biological sensor that measures the refractive index. A protein-glucose binding technology using Dgalactose/
D-glucose Binding Protein for specific absorption of glucose is employed to increase SPR measurement
precision. By immobilizing GGBP onto the surface of the SPR sensor, the experimental result indicates the detecting
resolution of glucose rises to 1mg/L, the system succeeds in distinguishing glucose from other components in mixture.
The feasibility of this method is validated for clinical application with the requirements of bloodless, painless,
continuous glucose monitoring and a prototype microfluidic diabetes-monitoring device is under development.
