Zusammenfassung:Devices and methods are described for providing continuous measurement of an analyte concentration. In some embodiments, the devices include a membrane that has an interference domain designed to reduce the permeation of one or more interferents. The device can be a continuous analyte sensor 34 having a sensing mechanism adapted for insertion under the host's skin, with the remaining body of the sensor residing ex vivo. The analyte sensor 34 can include a working electrode 38 and at least one additional electrode 30, which may function as a counter or reference electrode.
