1. A sensor for sensing analytes present in a body fluid of a user, the sensor comprising:

  • a substrate; and

    a filament comprising;

    a substrate core comprising;

    a columnar protrusion having a base end, coupled to the substrate, and a distal portion operable to provide access to the body fluid of the user during operation of the sensor;

    a conductive layer, isolated to the distal portion of the substrate core and away from the base end as an active region operable to transmit electronic signals generated upon detection of an analyte within the body fluid;

    an insulating layer surrounding the substrate core and exposing a portion of the conductive layer at the distal portion; and

    a sensing layer, in communication with the active region, configured for at least one of amperometric sensing and potentiometric sensing of the analyte.
