Published purpose

This project is part of the development of printed wearable sweat wristband sensing system for health monitoring and early-stage disease diagnosis. The sweat wristbands will need low power consumption components to ensure truly wearable and portable, which is critical to such applications. The current driving and sensing components require high operating voltage making it impossible to run with current available batteries. One of the solutions to reduce the operation voltage of the sensing and circuit components is to leverage the electrolyte-gated organic field-effect transistors (EGFETs) which may operate at
