Acoustically Readable Microneedle Patch Enables Enzyme‑Free Continuous Glucose Monitoring

Continuous glucose monitoring remains difficult to maintain over long periods because most commercial sensors rely on glucose oxidase enzymes that degrade within days or weeks, forcing frequent replacements and increasing cost. Researchers from the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology, the […]
