ABSTRACT:
This involves non-invasive glucose measurement processes for determining blood glucose level in the human body. After achieving a static level of glucose at a surface of the skin over some period of time, the glucose may then be measured by a variety of different processes. A sample of the glucose may also first be extracted from the skin and this sample may then be measured. Clearly, these processes are especially suitable for monitoring glucose levels in the human body, and is especially beneficial to users having diabetes mellitus. These procedures may be used for other analyte materials that are found in appropriate regions of the outer skin.
