Abstract
A method of creating an analyte sensor. The method starts with the step of providing an electrochemically active surface. Then, at least one nub made of dielectric material and extending transversely outwardly from the electrochemically active surface is created. A curable liquid is applied to the electrochemically active surface and the nub and is then cured. In this process, the nub, which could be one of several nubs, serves to support the liquid before and during the curing.
