he conventional glucose measuring electrode based techniques are highly
time consuming, need skilled people, proper laboratory set-up for testing.
Seeing the cruciality of the glucose testing, there is need to explore real-time
techniques. The main aim of this paper is to demonstrate a real-time label-free
glucose sensor using microwave sensing technique. Currently, we are working
on various designs on coplanar waveguide transmission line to demonstrate
microwave biosensor. The microwave biosensor is fabricated using microwave
laminate board and polymer technology. In this, we proposed biosensor fabricated
in-house making use of unconventional fabrication process without the need of
cleanroom and costly equipments unlike most of the reported microwave sensors
fabricated using conventional MEMS micromachining process. Secondly, the
labeled sensing techniques may have an inaccuracy which can be overcome using
label-free technique which may be highly useful for biomedical applications.
