Personalized Hydration Strategy to Improve Fluid Balance and Intermittent Exercise Performance in the Heat.

Sweat rate and electrolyte losses have a large inter-individual variability. A personalized approach to hydration can overcome this issue to meet an individual's needs. This study aimed to investigate the effects of a personalized hydration strategy (PHS) on fluid balance and intermittent exercise performance. Twelve participants conducted 11 laboratory visits including a VO2max test and two 5-day trial arms under normothermic (NOR) or hyperthermic (HYP) environmental conditions. Each arm began with three days of familiarization exercise followed by two random exercise trials with either a PHS or a control (CON). Then, participants crossed over to the second arm for: NOR+PHS, NOR+CON, HYP+PHS, or HYP+CON. The PHS was prescribed according to the participants' fluid and sweat sodium losses. CON drank ad libitum of commercially-available electrolyte solution. Exercise trials consisted of two phases: (1) 45 min constant workload; (2) high-intensity intermittent exercise (HIIT) until exhaustion. Fluids were only provided in phase 1. PHS had a significantly greater fluid intake (HYP+PHS: 831.7 ± 166.4 g; NOR+PHS: 734.2 ± 144.9 g) compared to CON (HYP+CON: 369.8 ± 221.7 g; NOR+CON: 272.3 ± 143.0 g), regardless of environmental conditions (p < 0.001). HYP+CON produced the lowest sweat sodium concentration (56.2 ± 9.0 mmol/L) compared to other trials (p < 0.001). HYP+PHS had a slower elevated thirst perception and a longer HIIT (765 ± 452 s) compared to HYP+CON (548 ± 283 s, p = 0.04). Thus, PHS reinforces fluid intake and successfully optimizes hydration status, regardless of environmental conditions. PHS may be or is an important factor in preventing negative physiological consequences during high-intensity exercise in the heat.

Sensing patches for biomarker identification in skin-derived biofluids.

In conventional clinical disease diagnosis and screening based on biomarker detection, most analysis samples are collected from serum, blood. However, these invasive collection methods require specific instruments, professionals, and may lead to infection risks. Additionally, the diagnosis process suffers from untimely results. The identification of skin-related biomarkers plays an unprecedented role in early disease diagnosis. More importantly, these skin-mediated approaches for collecting biomarker-containing biofluid samples are noninvasive or minimally invasive, which is more preferable for point-of-care testing (POCT). Therefore, skin-based biomarker detection patches have been promoted, owing to their unique advantages, such as simple fabrication, desirable transdermal properties and no requirements for professional medical staff. Currently, the skin biomarkers extracted from sweat, interstitial fluid (ISF) and wound exudate, are achieved with wearable sweat patches, transdermal MN patches, and wound patches, respectively. In this review, we detail these three types of skin patches in biofluids collection and diseases-related biomarkers identification. Patch classification and the corresponding manufacturing as well as detection strategies are also summarized. The remaining challenges in clinical applications and current issues in accurate detection are discussed for further advancement of this technology (Scheme 1).

All-printed wearable biosensor based on MWCNT-iron oxide nanocomposite ink for physiological level detection of glucose in human sweat.

Wearable sensors for sweat glucose monitoring are gaining massive interest as a patient-friendly and non-invasive way to manage diabetes. The present work offers an alternative on-body method employing an all-printed flexible electrochemical sensor to quantify the amount of glucose in human sweat. The working electrode of the glucose sensor was printed using a custom-formulated ink containing multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT), poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOPT: PSS), and iron (II, III) oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles. This novel ink composition has good conductivity, enhanced catalytic activity, and excellent selectivity. The working electrode was modified using Prussian blue (PB) nanoparticles and glucose oxidase enzyme (GOx). The sensor displayed a linear chronoamperometric response to glucose from 1 µM to 400 µM, with a precise detection limit of ∼0.38 µM and an impressive sensitivity of ∼4.495 µAµM-1cm-2. The sensor stored at 4 °C exhibited excellent stability over 60 days, high selectivity, and greater reproducibility. The glucose detection via the standard addition method in human sweat samples acquired a high recovery rate of 96.0-98.6%. Examining human sweat during physical activity also attested to the biosensor's real-time viability. The results also show an impressive correlation between glucose levels obtained from a commercial blood glucose meter and sweat glucose concentrations. Remarkably, the present results outperform previously published printed glucose sensors in terms of detection range, low cost, ease of manufacturing, stability, selectivity, and wearability.

Synergistic enhancement of wearable biosensor through Pt single-atom catalyst for sweat analysis.

Real-time monitoring of biological markers in sweat is a valuable tool for health assessment. In this study, we have developed an innovative wearable biosensor for precise analysis of glucose in sweat during physical activities. The sensor is based on a single-atom catalyst of platinum (Pt) uniformly dispersed on tricobalt tetroxide (Co3O4) nanorods and reduced graphene oxide (rGO), featuring a unique three-dimensional nanostructure and excellent glucose electrocatalytic performance with a wide detection range of 1-800 µM. Additionally, density functional theory calculations have revealed the synergetic role of Pt active sites in the Pt single-atom catalyst (Co3O4/rGO/Pt) in glucose adsorption and electron transfer, thereby enhancing sensor performance. To enable application in wearable devices, we designed an S-shaped microfluidic chip and a point-of-care testing (POCT) device, both of which were validated for effectiveness through actual use by volunteers. This research provides valuable insights and innovative approaches for analyzing sweat glucose using wearable devices, contributing to the advancement of personalized healthcare.

Fully Integrated Multiplexed Wristwatch for Real-Time Monitoring of Electrolyte Ions in Sweat.

Considerable progress has already been made in sweat sensors based on electrochemical methods to realize real-time monitoring of biomarkers. However, realizing long-term monitoring of multiple targets at the atomic level remains extremely challenging, in terms of designing stable solid contact (SC) interfaces and fully integrating multiple modules for large-scale applications of sweat sensors. Herein, a fully integrated wristwatch was designed using mass-manufactured sensor arrays based on hierarchical multilayer-pore cross-linked N-doped porous carbon coated by reduced graphene oxide (NPCs@rGO-950) microspheres with high hydrophobicity as core SC, and highly selective monitoring simultaneously for K+, Na+, and Ca2+ ions in human sweat was achieved, exhibiting near-Nernst responses almost without forming an interfacial water layer. Combined with computed tomography, solid-solid interface potential diffusion simulation results reveal extremely low interface diffusion potential and high interface capacitance (598 µF), ensuring the excellent potential stability, reversibility, repeatability, and selectivity of sensor arrays. The developed highly integrated-multiplexed wristwatch with multiple modules, including SC, sensor array, microfluidic chip, signal transduction, signal processing, and data visualization, achieved reliable real-time monitoring for K+, Na+, and Ca2+ ion concentrations in sweat. Ingenious material design, scalable sensor fabrication, and electrical integration of multimodule wearables lay the foundation for developing reliable sweat-sensing systems for health monitoring.

Wireless wearable potentiometric sensor for simultaneous determination of pH, sodium and potassium in human sweat.

This paper reports on the development of a flexible-wearable potentiometric sensor for real-time monitoring of sodium ion (Na+), potassium ion (K+), and pH in human sweat. Na0.44MnO2, polyaniline, and K2Co[Fe(CN)6] were used as sensing materials for Na+, H+ and K+ monitoring, respectively. The simultaneous potentiometric Na+, K+, and pH sensing were carried out by the developed sensor, which enables signal collection and transmission in real-time to the smartphone via a Wi-Fi access point. Then, the potentiometric responses were evaluated by a designed android application. Na+, K+, and pH sensors illustrated high sensitivity (59.7 ± 0.8 mV/decade for Na+, 57.8 ± 0.9 mV/decade for K+, and 54.7 ± 0.6 mV/pH for pH), excellent stability, and good batch-to-batch reproducibility. The results of on-body experiments demonstrated that the proposed platform is capable of real-time monitoring of the investigated ions.

Microfluidic Sensing Textile for Continuous Monitoring of Sweat Glucose at Rest.

Wearable sweat sensors have received considerable attention due to their great potential for noninvasive continuous monitoring of an individual's health status applications. However, the low secretion rate and fast evaporation of sweat pose challenges in collecting sweat from sedentary individuals for noninvasive analysis of body physiology. Here, we demonstrate wearable textiles for continuous monitoring of sweat at rest using the combination of a heating element and a microfluidic channel to increase localized skin sweat secretion rates and combat sweat evaporation, enabling accurate and stable monitoring of trace amounts of sweat. The Janus sensing yarns with a glucose sensing sensitivity of 36.57 mA cm-2 mM-1 are embroidered into the superhydrophobic heated textile to collect sweat directionally, resulting in improved sweat collection efficiency of up to 96 and 75% retention. The device also maintains a highly durable sensing performance, even in dynamic deformation, recycling, and washing. The microfluidic sensing textile can be further designed into a wireless sensing system that enables sedentary-compatible sweat analysis for the continuous, real-time monitoring of body glucose levels at rest.

Wearable Sensing Device Integrated with Prestored Reagents for Cortisol Detection in Sweat.

Wearable sweat sensors have achieved rapid development since they hold great potential in personalized health monitoring. However, a typical difficulty in practical processes is the control of working conditions for biorecognition elements, e.g., pH level and ionic strength in sweat may decrease the affinity between analytes and recognition elements. Here, we developed a wearable sensing device for cortisol detection in sweat using an aptamer as the recognition element. The device integrated functions of sweat collection, reagent prestorage, and signal conversion. Especially, the components of prestored reagents were optimized according to the inherent characteristics of sweat samples and electrodes, which allowed us to keep optimal conditions for aptamers. The sweat samples were transferred from the inlet of the device to the reagent prestored chamber, and the dry preserved reagents were rehydrated with sweat and then arrived at the aptamer-modified electrodes. Sweat samples of volunteers were analyzed by the wearable sensing device, and the results showed a good correlation with those of the ELISA kit. We believe that this convenient and reliable wearable sensing device has significant potential in self-health monitoring.

Fundamental Study of a Wristwatch Sweat Lactic Acid Monitor.

A lactic acid (LA) monitoring system aimed at sweat monitoring was fabricated and tested. The sweat LA monitoring system uses a continuous flow of phosphate buffer saline, instead of chambers or cells, for collecting and storing sweat fluid excreted at the skin surface. To facilitate the use of the sweat LA monitoring system by subjects when exercising, the fluid control system, including the sweat sampling device, was designed to be unaffected by body movements or muscle deformation. An advantage of our system is that the skin surface condition is constantly refreshed by continuous flow. A real sample test was carried out during stationary bike exercise, which showed that LA secretion increased by approximately 10 µg/cm2/min compared to the baseline levels before exercise. The LA levels recovered to baseline levels after exercise due to the effect of continuous flow. This indicates that the wristwatch sweat LA monitor has the potential to enable a detailed understanding of the LA distribution at the skin surface.

Adaptively resettable microfluidic patch for sweat rate and electrolytes detection.

Skin-interfaced microfluidic patch has become a reliable device for sweat collection and analysis. However, the intractable problems of emptying the microchannel for reuse, and the channel's volumetric capacity limited by the size of the patch, directly hinder the practical application of sweat sensors. Herein, we report an adaptively resettable microfluidic sweat patch (Art-Sweat patch) capable of continuously monitoring both sweat rate (0.2-4.0 µL min-1) and total ionic charge concentration (10-200 mmol L-1). We develop a platform with a vertical and horizontal microchannel combined strategy, enabling repeatedly filling sweat and emptying the microchannel for autonomously resetting and detecting. The variation in the emptied volume is designed to be adaptively identified by the sensor, resulting in enhanced stability and an enlarged volumetric capacity of over 300 µL. By integrating with self-designed wireless transmission modules, the proposed Art-Sweat patch shows product-level wearability and high performance in monitoring variations in regional sweat rate and concentration for hydration status assessment.

Hygroscopic cooling (h-cool) fabric with highly efficient sweat evaporation and heat dissipation for personal thermo-moisture management.

Moisture evaporation plays a crucial role in thermal management of human body, particularly in perspiration process. However, current fabrics aim for sweat removal and takes little account of basic thermo-regulation of sweat, resulted in their limited evaporation capacity and heat dissipation at moderate/intense scenarios. In this study, a hygroscopic cooling (h-cool) fabric based on multi-functional design, for personal perspiration management, was described. By using economic and effective weaving technology, directional moisture transport routes and heat conductive pathways were incorporated in the construct. The resultant fabric showed 10 times greater one-way transport index higher than cotton, Dri-FIT and Coolswitch fabrics, which contributed to highly enhanced evaporation ability (∼4.5 times than cotton), not merely liquid diffusion. As a result, h-cool fabric performed 2.1-4.2 °C cooling efficacy with significantly reduced sweat consuming than cotton, Dri-FIT and Coolswitch fabrics in the artificial sweating skin. Finally, the practical applications by actually wearing h-cool fabric showed great evaporative-cooling efficacy during different physical activities. Owing to the excellent thermo-moisture management ability, we expect the novel concept and construct of h-cool fabric can provide promising strategy for developing functional textiles with great "cool" and comfortable "dry" tactile sensation at various daily scenarios.

Large-Scale Wearable Textile-Based Sweat Sensor with High Sensitivity, Rapid Response, and Stable Electrochemical Performance.

Textile-based sweat sensors display great potential to enhance wearable comfort and health monitoring; however, their widespread application is severely hindered by the intricate manufacturing process and electrochemical characteristics. To address this challenge, we combined both impregnation coating technology and conjugated electrospinning technology to develop an electro-assisted impregnation core-spinning technology (EAICST), which enables us to simply construct a sheath-core electrochemical sensing yarn (TPFV/CPP yarn) via coating PEDOT:PSS-coated carbon fibers (CPP) with polyurethane (TPU)/polyacrylonitrile (PAN)/poloxamer (F127)/valinomycin as shell. The TPFV/CPP yarn was sewn into the fabric and integrated with a sensor to achieve a detachable feature and efficiently monitor K+ levels in sweat. By introducing EAICST, a speed of 10 m/h can be realized in the continuous preparation of the TPFV/CPP yarn, while the interconnected pores in the yarn sheath enable it to quickly capture and diffuse sweat. Besides, the sensor exhibited excellent sensitivity (54.26 mV/decade), fast response (1.7 s), anti-interference, and long-term stability (5000 s or more). Especially, it also possesses favorable washability and wear resistance properties. Taken together, this study provides a crucial technical foundation for the development of advanced wearable devices designed for sweat analysis.

Sweat is an important biofluid with rich physiological information that can evaluate human health condition. Wearable sweat sensors have received widespread attention in recent years due to the benefits of non-invasive, continuous, and real-time monitoring. Currently, an efficient device integrating sweat collection and detection is still needed. Here, a wearable sweat microfluidic system was fabricated for real-time collection and analysis of sweat.

Moreover, the sensing array also showed good repeatability and stability, with a relative standard deviation of sensitivity of less than 5%. Additionally, human testing was conducted to demonstrate that this microfluidic system can continuously monitor Na+, K+, and glucose in subjects' sweat during exercise, which showed high potential for non-invasive human health monitoring.

RESULTS: We synthesized CuNi-MOF@rGO as a high-activity electrocatalyst and investigated its feasibility and electrochemical mechanism for simultaneously detecting low-concentration biomarkers UA and DA. Interaction between the non-coordinating carboxylate group and the sample produces effective separation signals for DA and UA. The wearable biomimetic biosensor has a wide linear range of 1-500 µM, with a detection limit of 9.41 µM and sensitivity of 0.019 µA µM-1 cm-2 for DA, and 10-1000 µM, with a detection limit of 9.09 µM and sensitivity of 0.026 µA µM-1 cm-2 for UA. Thus, our sensor performs excellently in detecting low-concentration biomarkers. To improve sweat collection, we designed a microfluidic-controlled device with hydrophilic modification in the microchannel. Experimental results show optimal ink flow at 2% concentration. Overall, we developed an innovative and highly active electrocatalyst, successfully enabling simultaneous detection of low-concentration biomarkers UA and DA. SIGNIFICANCE: This study provides a strategy for sweat analysis and health monitoring. Moreover, the sensor also showed good performance in detecting real sweat samples. This study has shown great potential in future advances in sweat analysis and health monitoring.

Integrated Electrochemical Aptasensor Array toward Monitoring Anticancer Drugs in Sweat.

In the realm of clinical practice, the concurrent utilization of anticancer medications can enhance their overall therapeutic efficacy. However, it is crucial to acknowledge that the interactions among these anticancer drugs can potentially yield detrimental consequences on their intended outcomes. Consequently, the assessment of both anticancer potency and potential toxic side effects is greatly refined when multiple anticancer drugs are simultaneously detected and evaluated. Here, we designed a wearable electrochemical aptasensor array for monitoring multiple anticancer drugs in sweat. The integrated sensor array consists of three working electrodes modified with three different aptamers (Apt1, Apt2, and Apt3), a Au counter electrode, and a Ag/AgCl reference electrode. Molecular docking simulations were performed to show the binding affinities between three anticancer drugs and their corresponding aptamers. Various eigenvalues were derived from the square-wave voltammetry electrochemical signals, and these data sets were subjected to rigorous analysis through multivariate data analysis techniques. This analytical approach demonstrated exceptional performance by achieving flawless 100% accuracy in the precise identification of nine anticancer drugs consistently at uniform concentrations. Furthermore, the integrated wearable sensor array exhibited impressive capabilities, correctly recognizing all nine anticancer drugs with 100% accuracy and successfully distinguishing between these drugs in artificial sweat samples. The proposed sensor array presents good stability for 15 days. Flexibility tests showed stable device performance after 500 twisting cycles. This innovative wearable sensing array represents a novel approach for achieving real-time monitoring and precise adjustment of drug dosages. It offers invaluable insights for tailoring the treatment of anticancer drugs to individual patients, predicting both drug efficacy and potential adverse reactions within the field of clinical medicine.

Pyrene-Appended Boronic Acids on Graphene Foam Electrodes Provide Quantum Capacitance-Based Molecular Sensors for Lactate.

Molecular recognition and sensing can be coupled to interfacial capacitance changes on graphene foam surfaces linked to double layer effects and coupled to enhanced quantum capacitance. 3D graphene foam film electrodes (Gii-Sens; thickness approximately 40 µm; roughness factor approximately 100) immersed in aqueous buffer media exhibit an order of magnitude jump in electrochemical capacitance upon adsorption of a charged molecular receptor based on pyrene-appended boronic acids (here, 4-borono-1-(pyren-2-ylmethyl)pyridin-1-ium bromide, or abbreviated T1). This pyrene-appended pyridinium boronic acid receptor is employed here as a molecular receptor for lactate. In the presence of lactate and at pH 4.0 (after pH optimization), the electrochemical capacitance (determined by impedance spectroscopy) doubles again. Lactic acid binding is expressed with a Hillian binding constant (Klactate = 75 mol-1 dm3 and α = 0.8 in aqueous buffer, Klactate = 460 mol-1 dm3 and α = 0.8 in artificial sweat, and Klactate = 340 mol-1 dm3 and α = 0.65 in human serum). The result is a selective molecular probe response for lactic acid with LoD = 1.3, 1.4, and 1.8 mM in aqueous buffer media (pH 4.0), in artificial sweat (adjusted to pH 4.7), and in human serum (pH adjusted to 4.0), respectively. The role of the pyrene-appended boronic acid is discussed based on the double layer structure and quantum capacitance changes. In the future, this new type of molecular capacitance sensor could provide selective enzyme-free analysis without analyte consumption for a wider range of analytes and complex environments.

Stretchable and Sweat-Wicking Patch for Skin-Attached Colorimetric Analysis of Sweat Biomarkers.

Stretchable sweat sensors are promising technology that can acquire biomolecular insights for health and fitness monitoring by intimate integration with the body. However, current sensors often require microfabricated microfluidic channels to control sweat flow during lab-on-body analysis, which makes effective and affordable sweat sampling a significant practical challenge. Here, we present stretchable and sweat-wicking patches that utilize bioinspired smart wettable membranes for the on-demand manipulation of sweat flow. In a scalable process, the membrane is created by stacking hydrophobic elastomer nanofibers onto soft microfoams with predefined two-dimensional superhydrophobic and superhydrophilic patterns. The engineered heterogeneous wettability distribution allows these porous membranes to achieve enhanced extraction and selective collection of sweat in embedded assays. Despite the simplified architecture, the color reactions between sweat and chemical indicators are inhibited from directly contacting the skin to achieve a largely improved operation safety. The sensing patches can simultaneously quantify pH, urea, and calcium in sweat through digital colorimetric analysis with smartphone images. The construction with all compliant materials renders these patches soft and stretchy to achieve conformal attachment to the skin. Successfully analyzing sweat compositions after physical exercises illustrates the practical suitability of these skin-attachable sensors for health tracking and point-of-care diagnosis.

A Wearable Electrochemical Biosensor Utilizing Functionalized Ti3C2Tx MXene for the Real-Time Monitoring of Uric Acid Metabolite.

Wearable, noninvasive sensors enable the continuous monitoring of metabolites in sweat and provide clinical information related to an individual's health and disease states. Uric acid (UA) is a key indicator highly associated with gout, hyperuricaemia, hypertension, kidney disease, and Lesch-Nyhan syndrome. However, the detection of UA levels typically relies on invasive blood tests. Therefore, developing a wearable device for noninvasive monitoring of UA concentrations in sweat could facilitate real-time personalized disease prevention. Here, we introduce 1,3,6,8-pyrene tetrasulfonic acid sodium salt (PyTS) as a bifunctional molecule functionalized with Ti3C2Tx via π-π conjugation to design nonenzymatic wearable sensors for sensitive and selective detection of UA concentration in human sweat. PyTS@Ti3C2Tx provides many oxidation-reduction active groups to enhance the electrocatalytic ability of the UA oxidation reaction. The PyTS@Ti3C2Tx-based electrochemical sensor demonstrates highly sensitive detection of UA in the concentration range of 5 µM-100 µM, exhibiting a lower detection limit of 0.48 µM compared to the uricase-based sensor (0.84 µM). In volunteers, the PyTS@Ti3C2Tx-based wearable sensor is integrated with flexible microfluidic sweat sampling and wireless electronics to enable real-time monitoring of UA levels during aerobic exercise. Simultaneously, it allows for comparison of blood UA levels via a commercial UA analyzer. Herein, this study provides a promising electrocatalyst strategy for nonenzymatic electrochemical UA sensor, enabling noninvasive real-time monitoring of UA levels in human sweat and personalized disease prevention.

Wearable intelligent sweat platform for SERS-AI diagnosis of gout.

For the past few years, sweat analysis for health monitoring has attracted increasing attention benefiting from wearable technology. In related research, the sensitive detection of uric acid (UA) in sweat with complex composition based on surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) for the diagnosis of gout is still a significant challenge. Herein, we report a visualized and intelligent wearable sweat platform for SERS detection of UA in sweat. In this wearable platform, the spiral channel consisted of colorimetric paper with Ag nanowires (AgNWs) that could capture sweat for SERS measurement. With the help of photos from a smartphone, the pH value and volume of sweat could be quantified intelligently based on the image recognition technique. To diagnose gout, SERS spectra of human sweat with UA are collected in this wearable intelligent platform and analyzed by artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms. The results indicate that the artificial neural network (ANN) algorithm exhibits good identification of gout with high accuracy at 97%. Our work demonstrates that SERS-AI in a wearable intelligent sweat platform could be a feasible strategy for diagnosis of gout, which expands research on sweat analysis for comfortable and noninvasive health monitoring.
