Claim 17:
18. A method for manufacturing a microneedle sensor, the method comprising:
removing material from a semiconductor substrate to form needle bodies having sharp ends with exposed conductive material; and
after forming the sharp ends, forming at least one analyte detection layer along conductive material of the needle bodies, wherein the at least one layer is configured to facilitate detection of at least one analyte in interstitial fluid of a user,
wherein the needle bodies each include a conductive material and an electrically insulating material that electrical insulates the conductive material, wherein the electrically insulating material defines an outer skin-contacting surface and at least a portion of the sharp end protruding past the outer skin-contacting surface.
