Blood Glucose Analysis Utilizing Artificial Raindrop Algorithm and Capacitance Method

Controlling blood glucose is a way to avoid complications of diabetes. Blood glucose monitoring is a way to test the concentration of glucose in the blood. This study aims to determine the suitability of Artificial Raindrop Algorithm (ARA) and capacitance method in measuring the blood glucose. ARA is a new search algorithm that produces very promising results on the nonlinear function approximation. Blood samples were obtained from 65 different individuals. The sample was placed in a glass slide and the blood glucose is measured using the developed prototype. The results were compared to the laborotary result. The developed device showed 96.92% accuracy.
