Abstract
Environmental concerns with conventional plastics have urged the development of sustainable wearable devices. Paper-based wearables offer a compelling alternative due to their affordability, disposability, biocompatibility, and tunable surface properties. This review explores the crucial mechanical and biological aspects of paper for wearable applications. We summarized the characteristics of wearable paper-based electroanalytical devices (WePEDs) and strategies for modifying cellulose for specific functionalities. Furthermore, we examined the components of WePEDs, including sampling/preprocessing units, sensors, and integrated electronics. We then explored their potential applications in health monitoring. Finally, we discussed the challenges that need to be addressed for widespread adoption of paper-based wearable devices.
