20260091142 · 2026-04-02 · ·

The present invention relates to a biocompatible tattoo ink that changes color in response to varying glucose levels in the bloodstream, providing a continuous monitoring method for individuals with diabetes. The ink contains glucose-sensitive agents that cause the tattoo to change from green (normal glucose levels) to red (high glucose levels) or blue (low glucose levels). Additionally, the ink shifts back to green when blood glucose returns to normal from either hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia. This provides a real-time visual indicator of glucose levels and enables users to monitor their health without additional equipment.
