    摘要: Analyte sensors are being increasingly employed for monitoring various analytes in vivo. Analyte sensors configured to monitor multiple analytes are also in development. Sufficient sensitivity for low-abundance analytes and multiple analytes having differing membrane permeability values may complicate analyte detection in some cases. Analyte sensors may feature enhancements to address one or both of these issues. Some analyte sensors may comprise a carbon working electrode comprising a dielectric substrate, one or more apertures extending through the dielectric substrate and filled with a carbon conductor pillar, a carbon conductor coating on a first face of the dielectric substrate in direct contact with each carbon conductor pillar, and one or more active areas on a second face of the dielectric substrate in electrical communication with the carbon conductor pillars. Photopolymerized mass transport limiting membranes may be used in combination with such carbon working electrodes or with other working electrode types.
