Abstract

Nosivi kemijski senzori integrirani su analitički uređaji kojima je omogućeno kontinuirano i neinvazivno praćenje i analiza biomarkera u tijelu bez klasičnih metoda poput vađenja krvi ili biopsije tkiva. Razvoj i inovativne primjene nosivih kemijskih senzora nadopunit će i unaprijediti različita područja medicine, veterine i sporta, a posebno u dijagnostici, terapiji i kontinuiranom praćenju zdravstvenog stanja. Koža i tjelesne tekućine predstavljaju vrijedan izvor biokemijskih informacija za razvoj nosivih kemijskih senzora koje je stoga potrebno pažljivo dizajnirati kako bi zadovoljili stroge kriterije navedenih primjena. Poseban izazov u tome predstavlja postizanje zadovoljavajućih analitičkih značajki za predviđenu namjenu (točnost, ponovljivost, kontinuirano praćenje, itd.) uključujući istovremeno biokompatibilnost i senzorsku funkcionalnost primijenjenih materijala. Cilj ovog rada bio je predstaviti pregled postojećih funkcionalnih tetovaža i nosivih kemijskih senzora, posebno njihovu potencijalnu primjenu za analizu znoja i insterticijske tekućine, obuhvaćajući znanstvenu literaturu kao i komercijalno dostupne uređaje.

Abstract (english)

Wearable chemical sensors are integrated analytical devices that allow continuous and noninvasive monitoring and analysis of biomarkers in the body without classic methods such as blood extraction or tissue biopsy. The development and innovative applications of wearable chemical sensors will contribute to development in the fields of medicine, veterinary medicine and sports, especially in diagnostics, therapy and continuous monitoring of health conditions. Skin and certain body fluids are a promising source of (bio)chemical information for the development of wereable chemical sensors which therefore need to be carefully designed to meet the strict criteria of these applications. A specific challenge in this regard is achieving satisfactory analytical features for the intended purpose (accuracy, repeatability, continuous monitoring, etc.), simultaneously including both the biocompatibility and sensor functionality of the applied materials. This paper aims to elaborate the overwiev of the existing functional tattoos and wereable chemical sensors in regards to the ability for the analysis of the sweat or the interstitial fluids including the scientific literature as well as commercially avalible devices.
