Abstract
A blood glucose sensing device includes a substrate, multiple three-dimensionally (3D) printed electrode leads comprising graphene arranged on or over the substrate, and glucose monitoring chemistry arranged in or on (e.g., adsorbed in) at least one of the 3D printed electrode leads. An end portion of a counter electrode lead may partially surround an end portion of a working electrode lead, and a reference lead may be further provided, Optionally, the 3D printed electrode leads may include a thermoplastic material, such as an aliphatic polyester. The glucose monitoring chemistry may include an enzyme.
