Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9843075A1] An electrochemical sensor is fabricated by rotogravure printing of electrically conductive ink to form one ore more electrodes on a flexible web (7), which may be polymeric. A cylinder (9) coated with a covering defining the shape of the electrodes to be printed may be used. Further cylinders (14, 17) may be used to print further films or layers.
