1. A method of making a plurality of calibration-adjusted sensors comprising:

  • separating a first pre-sensor from a sheet construction to form a first sensor, the first sensor having physical characteristics defining a first slope and y-intercept, wherein the sheet construction comprises a plurality of pre-sensors including the first pre-sensor, each pre-sensor comprising a working electrode, a counter electrode, and a sample chamber, wherein the sample chamber has at least part of the working electrode and the counter electrode arranged therein;

    determining the first slope and y-intercept of the first sensor;

    comparing the first slope and y-intercept of the first sensor to a predetermined level of slopes and y-intercepts; and

    when the first slope and y-intercept is within the predetermined level of slopes and y-intercepts, physically modifying a second pre-sensor of the plurality of pre-sensors to form a second sensor that is separated from the sheet construction, the second sensor having the first physical characteristics;

    orwhen the first slope and y-intercept deviates outside the predetermined level of slopes and y-intercepts, physically modifying the second pre-sensor based on the deviation to form a second sensor that is separated from the sheet construction, the second sensor having second physical characteristics, the second physical characteristics defining a second slope and y-intercept of the second sensor that is within the predetermined level of slopes and y-intercepts, wherein the second physical characteristics are different than the first characteristics;

    wherein physically modifying the second pre-sensor comprises modifying the sample chamber of the second pre-sensor.
