Short description (English)	Implantable Glucose Sensor (IGLUS) for the improved management of diabetes
Abstract (English)	This project is the continuation of project #6939.1 MTS-LTS1 where it has been demonstrated that the concept of a two-capsule rheometer was applicable (viscosity measurement including temperature compensation controlled by an external reader). In addition, the sensitive solution for glucose detection has also been experienced and specified. These two fundamentals being proven and well understood, it is now relevant to go one step beyond. That is the object of this new project which aims at achieving a real size functional prototype including the sensitive solution, the membrane and the membrane coating. This prototype should greatly facilitate Sensile Medical¿s partnership quest.
