Abstract:
1. A method of molding an electrochemical sensor, the method comprising the acts of: providing a first mold; inserting a first electrical contact in the first mold; inserting a second electrical contact in the first mold; placing a sacrificial insert in the first mold; closing the first mold with a second mold; injecting material for forming the electrochemical sensor into the closed first and second molds; curing the material; opening the first and second molds with respect to each other; and extracting the sacrificial insert from the cured material so as to leave a channel in the cured material and form the electrochemical sensor, the channel extending from a first end of the electrochemical sensor and terminating before a second end of the electrochemical sensor.
