The use of nanoscale electrodes in electrochemical devices such as glucose sensors is required to address the evolving need for continuous health monitoring devices and wearable sensors. Real time and continuous quantification of biomolecules and disease markers leads to better health management, reduced complications, improved quality of life for the patients and reduced health costs. Electrochemical devices with such ability are therefore required for, the rapidly ageing population and reducing health costs. Nanoscale electrodes with rapid response and stabilization time, high signal to noise ratio and ability for detection in small sample volumes will be developed and applied as electrochemical sensors as a part of this project. The nanoscale electrodes made by simple self-assembly and bio-compatible ions such as calcium and magnesium and gold nanoparticles are bio-compatible and low cost. Development of commercial electrochemical devices based on this nanoelectrode will be done by the industrial partner Medella Health.

需要在电化学装置（例如葡萄糖传感器）中使用纳米级电极来解决对连续健康监测装置和可穿戴传感器的不断发展的需求。生物分子和疾病标志物的真实的实时和连续定量导致更好的健康管理，减少并发症，改善患者的生活质量并降低健康成本。因此，具有这种能力的电化学装置需要用于快速老龄化的人口和降低健康成本。作为本项目的一部分，将开发具有快速响应和稳定时间、高信噪比和小样品体积检测能力的纳米电极，并将其用作电化学传感器。通过简单的自组装和生物相容性离子如钙、镁和金纳米颗粒制成的纳米电极具有生物相容性和低成本。基于这种纳米电极的商业电化学设备的开发将由工业合作伙伴Medella Health完成。
