10/03-- Kislaya Kunjan, lead engineer with Vista Biosciences LLC, works on a sensor system developed jointly with Purdue University researchers that detects glucose molecules by shining light in a specific range called mid-infrared radiation, through clear interstitial fluid extracted from under a person's skin. This technology may spawn a new class of hospital bedside monitors (shown) as well as wearable devices to continuously monitor glucose for people with diabetes, eliminating painful finger pricks and alerting a person when it is time to inject insulin.
