Researchers have developed a glucose-sensing contact lens as a noninvasive alternative to traditional glucose monitoring with blood tests. Glucose is a good target for optical sensing using surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, according to the study published in Advanced Materials. Researchers used multiple layers of gold nanowire stacked on top of a gold film to make the […]
