Recent Advances in Skin Chemical Sensors

Abstract: This review summarizes the latest developments in the field of skin chemical sensors, in particular wearable ones. Five major applications are covered in the present work: (i) sweat analysis, (ii) skin hydration, (iii) skin wounds, (iv) perspiration of volatile organic compounds, and (v) general skin conditions. For each application, the detection of the most relevant analytes is described in terms of transduction principles and sensor performances. Special attention is paid to the biological fluid collection … Show more

“…Metabolites, such as lactate, glucose, uric acid, and electrolytes (e.g., K + , Na + , and Cl − ) from human secretion are important indicators of human health status. [ 894–897 ] Among different human secretions, sweat is among the most accessible ones by noninvasive sampling techniques (e.g., using an epidermal microfluidic device, [ 898,899 ] letting sweat naturally drip off from the skin, [ 900,901 ] and collecting the water from whole body wash [ 900,902–904 ] ). Sweat can be collected to provide human health information for medical diagnostics.…”

“…Small, tooth mounted sensors in which the properties of reflected radio frequency (RF) waves are modulated by the presence of certain chemicals in saliva can detect the consumption of salt and alcohol in real time (45). Similarly, tattoo like epidermal sensors that attach to, and stretch and flex with the skin can detect a variety of metabolites in an individual's perspiration that relate directly to their diet (46). For these devices, it is important that metabolites detected are specific to food intake, and not conflated with endogenous metabolites produced by the body as a result of eating.…”
