Abstract:
1. A method for determining the amount of glucose in a human body, the method comprising: (a) providing a plurality of electrical signature signals, wherein each electrical signature signal corresponds to a predetermined indicator of glucose; (b) applying an electrical signature signal from the plurality of electrical signals to at least two electrodes; (c) measure a first change in impedance over time resulting from the application of the electrical signature signal to produce a first set of measured data; (d) applying the electrical signature signal from the plurality of electrical signals to the two electrodes; (e) measure a second change in impedance over time resulting from the application of the second electrical signature signal to produce a second set of measured data; (f) determining whether the first set of measure data and the second set of measured data have converged, if yes, then storing the first set and second set as a candidate data set; (g) determining whether all of the electrical signature signals in the plurality of electrical signature signals have been applied,
