Temp tattoo to check glucose?!

[Stephanie.F]

Has anyone else heard of this? How exciting would it be to actually have this and it work just like our meters do?
What a great idea, pain free and injections free just simply put on this temporary tattoo to check our levels it only last a day so will have to get a lot and it might cost abit but how much easier would it make life? I'd defiantly be interested in this!

It looks fantastic and having read the research paper abstract from the University of San Diego, where they say that they have only really proved the concept, wouldn't it be great if it doesn't now take for ever to go through the relevant trials. One would like to think that as it's non invasive, clinical trials would be easier than a drug, on the other hand, they have to be 100% sure of it's accuracy. Fingers crossed.
I wonder how it differs from http://www.freestylelibre.co.uk/. I can't remember if it's been discussed here, I know of some who have trialled it, but the sensors are £50 and last 2 weeks. I'm still waiting for a response to tell me when they will become available again.
