Hydrogel-based flexible materials for diabetes diagnosis, treatment, and management

Abstract Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by high glucose concentration in blood. Conventional management of diabetes requires skin pricking and subcutaneous injection, causing physical pain and physiological issues to diabetic individuals. Hydrogels possess unique advantages su...
