Non printed small volume in vitro analyte sensor and methods
First Claim
1. An electrochemical cell formed from a wet dispersion where the solvent is selected from chloroform, acetone, water, o-Xylene, o-Dichlorobenzene or alcohols and is dispersed in a coating or ink comprising of a plurality of carbon nanotubes with an outer diameter of less than 20 nm, said carbon nanotubes consisting of less than 10 percent by weight of the wet dispersion which is applied to a substrate as the wet dispersion and cured using heat so that the resulting cured coating or ink is conductive, ductile and has a surface morphology of less than about 2500 nm when compared to a base surface morphology.
