Real-time monitoring glucose by used microwave antenna apply to biosensor

Abstract

In this paper we investigate the electromagnetic field interaction with a glucose aqueous solution using a microwave antenna (U-shape) to evaluate the glucose concentration and vary temperature. The glucose concentration vary from 10-40 mg/ml compare with DI(de-ionized) water, the operating frequency of about 1-2.5GHz. The change of the glucose concentration is directly related to the change of the reflection coefficient due to electromagnetic interaction between the dielectric wave and the glucose aqueous solution. A glucose biosensor using microwave antenna (U-shape) provides a unique approach for glucose monitoring. The antenna is designed have various formed and test by comsol program. The principles of Comsol is finite element for dispersion of electromagnetic waves from a real experiment to measure the concentration of glucose solution. © 2011 IEEE.
