  • Abstract
    This Paper studies the methodology that utilizes optical transmission spectroscopy techniques for the non-invasive measurement of blood glucose concentrations in diabetic patients. Mid-Infrared (Mid-IR) range wavelength was used to study the variations of glucose concentrations in two different media: saline-blood and pure blood samples. Results obtained from both categories of samples were analyzed and presented in this paper.
