Abstract

L'invention concerne un capteur d'analyte (41), comprenant au moins une couche de substrat (411). Le substrat (411) comprend une partie in vivo (Y) et une partie in vitro (X). Au moins deux électrodes (4131, 4231, 4331) sont agencées sur la surface de la partie in vivo (Y) afin de pénétrer dans les tissus sous-cutanés pour obtenir des informations sur les paramètres des analytes. L'électrode (4131, 4231, 4331) est distribuée sur la surface de la partie in vivo (Y) d'une manière prédéterminée, en évitant la zone de pliage facile (416) sur le substrat. Lorsque le substrat est plié de manière répétée, le risque de rupture de l'électrode est réduit. Dans le même temps, au moins une couche de matériau isolant est post-fabriquée sur au moins une zone du substrat en évitant la zone où se trouvent le PAD et l'électrode, ce qui augmente la résistance mécanique du substrat du capteur. Une fois que le capteur a pénétré dans les tissus sous-cutanés, lors de la flexion avec un péristaltisme musculaire, le temps avant que le substrat atteigne la fatigue limite est allongé, ce qui prolonge la durée de vie du capteur et améliore la fiabilité de détection du capteur.
