Abstract: An analyte measurement device including an analyte sensor configured to measure an analyte level, the analyte sensor including a tail portion for subcutaneous placement, the tail portion having an analyte-responsive enzyme disposed thereon; an applicator for delivery of the analyte sensor, the applicator having a housing defining a hermetically-sealed chamber, the tail portion disposed within the chamber prior to subcutaneous placement; and a scavenger material disposed within the chamber, the scavenger material comprising at least one of activated carbon, molecular sieve, and silica gel and configured to adsorb at least one substance within the chamber. A method of packaging an analyte sensor is also disclosed.

Abstract: Devices associated with on-body analyte sensor units are disclosed. These devices include any of packaging and/or loading systems, applicators and elements of the on-body sensor units themselves. Also, various approaches to connecting electrochemical analyte sensors to and/or within associated on-body analyte sensor units are disclosed. The connector approaches variously involve the use of unique sensor and ancillary element arrangements to facilitate assembly of separate electronics assemblies and sensor elements that are kept apart until the end user brings them together.

Abstract: A system includes a sensor applicator, a sensor control device arranged within the sensor applicator and including an electronics housing and a sensor extending from a bottom of the electronics housing, and a cap coupled to one of the sensor applicator and the sensor control device, wherein the cap is removable prior to deploying the sensor control device from the sensor applicator.

Abstract: A method includes assembling a sensor subassembly that includes a sensor, a sensor mount, a collar, a sharp, and a sensor cap. The method includes loading a sensor in a sensor mount; dispensing adhesive into a mount channel of the sensor mount; clamping a collar to the sensor mount; and curing the adhesive to fix the collar to the sensor mount. The method can also include inserting a sharp into the sensor mount over the sensor an attaching a sensor cap to the sensor and sensor sharp to provide a sealed sensor subassembly. Methods of assembling an on-body sensor puck assembly and an applicator assembly, and a sensor including a tail, a flag, and a neck that interconnects the tail and the flag and methods of configuring a sensor are also disclosed.
