In Hydrogele eingebrachte chemische Reaktionsnetzwerke können responsive Materialien zu komplexen, selbstregulierenden transformieren, die eine Rückkopplung auf externe Stimuli generieren können. Diese Arbeit präsentiert aus dem Wirt-Gast-Paar β-Cyclodextrin und Ferrocen als supramolekulare Vernetzer. Ein redoxresponsives Verhalten des Systems wird induziert durch Treibstoff-Enzym-Paare Meerret...

AIMS Artificial pancreas systems show benefit in closely monitored at-home studies, but may not have sufficient power to assess safety during infrequent, but expected, system or user errors. The aim of this study was to assess the safety of an artificial pancreas system emulating the β-cell when the glucose value used for control is improperly calibrated and participants forget to administer pr...

A review of the background of biosensors which utilise osmium complexes for monitoring the glucose levels in diabetic patients is presented. A n electrochemical system, based on an osmium redox polymer, is described; the system is aimed at being a reliable, compact and miniature in vivo sensor for implantation into diabetic patients for continuous monitoring of their blood glucose levels. The s...
