PS12 - 60. The effects of skin composition on glucose sensing

  • Published:
Nederlands Tijdschrift voor Diabetologie Aims and scope

Abstract

A robust and reliable method to measure glucose in the skin would provide an important improvement for selfmanagement of glycemic control. Glucose is heterogeneously distributed within human skin. To develop a system for continuous glucose monitoring for the skin, quantification of the composition of the skin and an understanding of glucose kinetics within the skin are essential. In addition, in this study the effects of intersubject variability in skin composition on glucose dynamics were investigated.
