Graphene and Its Derivatives: Synthesis and Application in the Electrochemical Detection of Analytes in Sweat

“…It also allows for the cost-effective use of elastomeric substance for the integration of nanoscale components into planar and nonplanar topographic surfaces [ 341 ]. Another popular method is to create an island-bridge architecture, in which conductive bridges are connected to the active part, which are referred to as islands [ 342 , 343 , 344 , 345 ]. These interconnects are designed to allow for overall device stretching while reducing strain on specific functional components.…”

Organic ionic fluid-based wearable sensors for healthcare

“…To this end, wearable sensors, which are regarded as the next generation of medical diagnostic platforms due to their portability and lightweight characteristics, are gradually stepping into the spotlight and have received increasing appreciation. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] Physiological parameters can directly reflect the status of human health. 10 The real-time monitoring and evaluation of physiological parameters can not only provide immediate early warning and treatment for diseases but also offer valuable information for rehabilitation evaluation.…”

Rational Design for Efficiently Improving the Sensitivity of Ti3C2 MXene-Based Waterborne Polyurethane Composites toward High-Performance Wearable Electronics

“…7−9 Furthermore, it is well known that the strain levels of different locations in the human body are distinctive for each person. 10,11 For instance, the strain triggered by the wrist pulse is extremely minute and is hard to detect, while the strain of limb joints, the elbow, for example, is relatively intense. Therefore, flexible and wearable strain sensors that feature high sensitivity are growingly pursued in the fields of personalized health monitoring.…”

“…Wearable electronics have been widely exploited during the past decade for their potential applications in advanced and smart fields, in particular, personalized health monitoring. , Besides, the key to the successful fabrication of wearable electronics lies in the utilization of flexible substrates, which is vital for achieving amenable integration with human superficial skin. Therefore, some representative wearable and flexible strain sensing platforms for healthcare favor polyurethane, , polydimethylsiloxane, , and other soft polymer materials. − Furthermore, it is well known that the strain levels of different locations in the human body are distinctive for each person. , For instance, the strain triggered by the wrist pulse is extremely minute and is hard to detect, while the strain of limb joints, the elbow, for example, is relatively intense.
