N2 - This paper demonstrates radio frequency (RF) sensing of saccharides such as glucose, fructose and sucrose based on Complementary Split Ring Resonator (CSRR). The CSRR based planar sensor is designed and fabricated over FR4 substrate of thickness 1.6 mm and with copper on both sides of thickness 0.035 mm. The fabricated sensor is connected to the Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) to study the electromagnetic interactions behavior between the designed sensor and saccharides. The quantitative and qualitative analysis is conducted by changing the concentration of saccharides in aqueous solution from 10 mg/ml to 50 mg/ml in steps of 10 mg/ml and then by changing the overall sample volume from 1 μl to 100 μl in variable step sizes. The resonant frequency property is utilized for detecting small changes in saccharides concentration of up to 10 mg/ml and overall sample volume change of 1 μl. The proposed RF sensor is highly robust, reliable, cost-effective and easy to use over other existing methodologies.
