1. An analyte monitor comprising:

  • a plurality of fluid paths, each fluid path comprising a distal opening adapted to be disposed on one side of a stratum corneum layer of a user'"'"'s skin, a proximal opening adapted to be disposed on another side of the stratum corneum layer and an interior space extending between the distal and proximal openings;

    a sensing zone in fluid communication with the proximal openings of the fluid paths;

    sensing fluid extending from the sensing zone into substantially the entire interior space of the fluid paths; and

    an analyte sensor adapted to detect a concentration of analyte in the sensing fluid within the sensing zone,wherein at least one of the sensing fluid and the analyte sensor comprises a catalyst for mutarotation of glucose.
