Sažetak

Large amount of people having diabetics in the world, and it is increasing very rapidly. Diabetics should to check their blood glucose level at least four times a day. When controls are not done regularly, risk of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia may arise. There are ongoing researches for developing non-invasive methods as an alternative to finger piercing, which is the most commonly used and painful method for patients. In this study, although a physical glucometer design has not been completed yet, it has been demonstrated which wavelength ranges and which parameters can be used for non-invasive device. Most importantly an empirical relationship has been established between the level of blood sugar and de-polarization disturbance seen in circularly polarized light. The proposed equation can estimate the blood glucose level based on de-polarization information with an average error rate of 1%.
