Abstract

Smart textile-based wearable sweat sensors have recently received a lot of attention due to their potential for use in personal medical monitoring. They have a variety of desirable qualities, including low cost, easy implementation, stretchability, flexibility, and light weight. Wearable sweat sensors are a potential approach for personalized medical devices because of these features. Moreover, real-time textile-based sweat sensors can easily monitor health by analyzing the sweat produced by the human body. We reviewed the most recent advancements in wearable sweat sensors from the fabrication, materials, and disease detection and monitoring perspectives. To integrate real-time biosensors with electronics and introduce advancements to the field of wearable technology, key chemical constituents of sweat, sweat collection technologies, and concerns of textile substrates are elaborated. Perspectives for building wearable biosensing systems based on sweat are reviewed, as well as the methods and difficulties involved in enhancing wearable sweat-sensing performance.
