Abstract :
Utilization of the changes in skin resistance during reverse iontophoresis is proposed to detect severe perspiration as well as to correct the glucose estimation. Developed system consists of the amperometric biosensor unit, the electrode unit, a constant current driver circuit and a microcontroller-based control. Performance of the developed system was evaluated by the in-vitro skin model which was specially designed for reverse iontophoresis system.
