A method for manufacturing a solid electrode. To more strongly utilize the intrinsic properties of a porous active material with respect to capacitance and therefore energy density and also rate and high-current capability, in the method, porous active material particles are impregnated using an ion-conducting liquid which contains monomers and/or oligomers in particular and a solid electrode is formed from the impregnated active material particles by adding at least one solid electrolyte. In addition, the invention relates to such solid electrodes and all-solid-state cells.

Briefly, a sensor for a continuous biological monitor is provided that has a working electrode with an enhanced carbon-enzyme layer that in one embodiment is made by mixing an aqueous polyurethane emulsion with an acrylic polyol emulsion to make a base emulsion. An enzyme and carbon materials are added to the base emulsion, which is applied to the working electrode and cured. The carbon materials may include carbon and graphite to provide strength, as well as graphene or pyrolytic graphite to provide a desirable electrical resistance for the carbon-enzyme layer. Optionally, other additives can be added to the base emulsion prior to application, such as hydophiles, cross linkers, adding imodeoesters, hydroxysuccimide, carboldilite, melamines, epoxies, benzoyl peroxide or dicumyl peroxide.

Briefly, a sensor for a continuous biological monitor is provided that has a working electrode with a new interfere layer that is (1) non-electron conducting, (2) ion passing, and (3) permselective for molecular weight. The new interference layer is made by mixing a monomer and a mildly basic buffer, and then electropolymerizing the monomer and the buffer into a polymer. The polymer is deposited onto a working electrode for a continuous metabolic monitor, for example, using an electro depositing process in the form of cyclic voltammety (CV). The interference layer is permselectable for molecule size by adjusting the pH of the basic buffer.

Briefly, a sensor for a continuous biological monitor is provided for measuring the level of a target analyte for a patient. The sensor has a working wire and a reference wire, where the working wire has an analyte limiting layer that passes more than 1 in 1000 analyte molecules from the patient to the an enzyme layer . The enzyme layer has an enzyme entrapped in a polyurethane cross-linked with acrylic polyol. As free electrons are generated, a conductor transfers the electrons to the biological monitor. In some cases, the sensor may be constructed without the use of any expensive platinum.
