Abstract
Continuous monitoring of glucose (CGM) level is of utmost importance to diabetic patients, especially with no or minimal pain. Microneedle arrays with desired electrode patterns have been fabricated by soft lithographic molding, and the patterned electrodes were formed via shadow evaporation through a shadow mask that was made from a modified molding technique. With immobilization of glucose oxidase (GOx), the microneedle electrode arrays (MEAs) have been successfully employed for the in vitro CGM using impedance spectroscopy. The fabricated MEAs could monitor the varying glucose level continuously for up to ~10 days. Similar processes have been applied for the fabrication of stretchable MEAs, which can conform to complex curvilinear surfaces. The simple and low-cost fabrication of MEAs, either in flexible or stretchable forms, may find various applications in wearable health monitoring techniques.

期刊介绍：
Biosensors (ISSN 2079-6374) provides an advanced forum for studies related to the science and technology of biosensors and biosensing. It publishes original research papers, comprehensive reviews and communications. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files and software regarding the full details of the calculation or experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary electronic material.
