Abstract
Wearable biochemical sensors have received substantial attention in recent years due to their great potential to provide insights into the physical condition of individuals. Based on the innovative biochemical sensing mechanisms and the recent advances in material science, the integrated biosensors are moving toward soft and small on-body electronic systems that can smartly and persistently monitor tiny changes in biochemical markers. They are beginning to transform almost every aspect of healthcare. This review looks into the state-of-the-art advances in this rising field by connecting the noninvasive biochemical sensing principles, materials science, advanced integration methods and the most representative cases of health monitoring wearable biosensors. Specifically, starting with a brief overview of the trends in wearable healthcare devices, we introduce the fundamental of chemistry for bio-sensing. The subsequent content highlights the contributions of nanomaterials and nanotechnologies in integrating and achieving on-body bio-sensing systems. We also discuss the key issues emerging in this area from a biocompatibility and material perspective. In the end, the review concludes with a summary of opportunities where advances in biochemistry and nanotechnology will be significant for future progress.
