Claim 0:
1. An embroidered electrochemical sensor for detecting a target analyte, the sensor comprising:
(a) a flexible substrate;
(b) a working electrode (WE) embroidered on the flexible substrate, the working electrode comprising a first textile fiber core and a first electrically conductive material shell around the first textile fiber core;
(c) optionally a counter electrode (CE) embroidered on the flexible substrate and spaced apart from the working electrode, the counter electrode comprising a second textile fiber core and a second electrically conductive material shell around the second textile fiber core;
(d) a reference electrode (RE) embroidered on the flexible substrate and spaced apart from both the working electrode and the counter electrode, the reference electrode comprising a third textile fiber core and a third electrically conductive material shell around the third textile fiber core; and
(e) an enzyme probe bound to the working electrode, wherein the enzyme probe is specific to the target analyte.
