Abstract
The rapid development of wearable sensing platforms in recent years has led to an array of viable monitoring applications for various target analytes. As a significant biomarker with high impact in diverse areas, the reliable on-body detection and continuous monitoring of alcohol has become a focus of many such systems. Currently, several commercial sensing platforms are available that are capable of transdermal monitoring of alcohol consumption using insensible sweat. Drawbacks of existing alcohol sensing platforms that apply this sensing strategy have led to efforts in developing wearable biosensors capable of real-time alcohol detection in sampled biofluids such as sensible sweat and skin interstitial fluid. This review discusses the current trends in wearable electrochemical alcohol biosensing and highlights recent advances in such systems toward continuous, real-time monitoring of alcohol consumption. Our perspective on this important field is given with an outlook on the future of wearable electrochemical alcohol biosensors.
