New Wearable Biosensor Monitors Kidney and Liver Drug Clearance in Real-Time

New Wearable Biosensor Monitors Kidney and Liver Drug Clearance in Real-Time

Researchers have developed a new microneedle biosensor capable of real-time monitoring of liver and kidney drug clearance. This minimally invasive system, tested in a rat model, uses a nanocavity-textured microneedle electrode paired with a bioanalytical framework to translate interstitial fluid measurements into blood-equivalent pharmacokinetic parameters. The biosensor demonstrated its potential for therapeutic drug monitoring by accurately reflecting drug levels in the blood and detecting prolonged drug half-life in rats with liver damage. Additionally, it showed strong correlation with dose-dependent changes in drug levels in healthy rats and indicated improvements in kidney function in rats recovering from induced kidney injury.
