The active release of pharmaceutical agents and the use of porous sensor membranes represent the two most promising strategies for addressing the poor tissue biocompatibility of implantable glucose biosensors. Herein, we describe the combination of these approaches to create nitric oxide (NO)-releasing porous fiber mat-modified sensor membranes. An electrospinning method was used to directly modify needle-type glucose biosensors with the NO donor-loaded fibers. The resulting NO-releasing fiber m ...[more]
