Single-use glucose test strips have allowed people with diabetes to monitor and control their blood sugar on a daily basis, but such control would be expected to improve drastically more with reliable, user-friendly, continuous sensing systems that were either implanted or noninvasive and so avoided drawing blood. In 1997 a volume described the emerging technologies; the studies here describe and evaluate the variety of commercial products now on the market and efforts to improve them. Chemists and biomedical engineers, almost all in academia rather than industry, discuss such topics as the macrophage in wound healing surrounding implanted devices, a window to observe the foreign body reaction to glucose sensors, transdermal micro-fluidic continuous monitoring, glucose sensors that release nitric oxide subcutaneously, and near-infrared and Raman spectroscopy for non-invasive glucose sensing.
