Abstract: Disclosed is a device for non-invasively sampling interstitial fluid including one or more analytes from dermis to the skin surface by employing the magneto-hydrodynamic effect and/or reverse iontophoresis. According to a preferable embodiment the device includes a first frame including a first electrode and a second frame including a second electrode, power source and preferably also a first magnet. The first frame is connected to the second frame by a formable connector adapted to provide mechanical connection between the first frame and the second frame and electrical connection between the power source and the first electrode. The direction of the magnetic field and the direction of the electric current produced by the magnet and the power source is such that the Lorenz force drives the fluid from the dermis towards the skin surface.

Abstract: The application relates to a device (100) for non-invasively sampling interstitial fluid comprising one or more analytes from dermis (101 a) to skin surface (101 b) by using the magneto-hydrodynamic effect. The device comprises a first electrode (102a) and a second electrode (102b) adapted to be positioned adjacent to the skin surface, the first electrode separated from the second electrode by a distance (103), a power source (104) adapted to induce an electric current through the first electrode, the interstitial fluid and the second electrode, and also a magnet (105) adapted to produce a magnetic field to the interstitial fluid. Direction of the magnetic field and direction of the electric current produced by the magnet and the power source, respectively, is such that Lorenz force drives the fluid from the dermis towards the skin surface.
