A non-invasive photoacoustic and ultrasonic method for the measurement of glucose solution concentration

Abstract: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease affecting nearly 400 million people worldwide. In order to manage the disease, patients need to monitor the blood glucose level by puncturing the finger several times a day, which is uncomfortable and inconvenient. We present here a potential non-invasive monitoring method based on the velocity of ultrasonic waves generated in glucose solution by the photoacoustic principal, which can recognize the glucose concentration down to 20mg/dL. In order to apply this method … Show more

“…The received PA signal by an ultrasound transducer at position z can be expressed by a one-dimensional wave equation along the z-direction [93] and solved by Green’s function [94] as follows: pfalse(z,tfalse)=βv22CpηFμaδfalse(tzvfalse) where β is the thermal expansion coefficient, v is the sound velocity, C p is the heat capacity at constant pressure, η represents the optic-heat conversion efficiency, and F represents the laser fluence. μ a and v vary with glucose concentration, which can be utilized in prediction [95,96,97]. Similar to optical spectroscopy, laser wavelengths ranging from NIR to MIR have been adopted in various studies [74,98,99,100,101].…”

“…Therefore, the density of glucose solution increases as the glucose concentration increases. In addition to the increase of the density, sound speed in the aqueous solution increases as glucose concentration increases [18]. Since the compressibility of individual glucose molecule is much smaller than that of water, the adiabatic compressibility of the glucose solution (βs) can be expressed as βs=β0false(1Φfalse) where β0 is the adiabatic compressibility of water and its value at 20 °C is given by β0=4.565×1010Pa1, Φ is the fractional volume of glucose.…”
