摘要：
Some embodiments described herein relate to an apparatus, such as an inserter, having a housing and a needle at least partially disposed within the housing. An actuator can be coupled to the needle and configured to move the needle between an actuated configuration and a retracted configuration. A wire can be at least partially disposed within the needle. The wire can be fixedly and immovably coupled to the housing. In some embodiments a biosensor can be disposed within the needle and the apparatus can be configured to deliver or implant the biosensor to a patient, for example, under the patient's skin. The biosensor can constructed of a non-rigid material, such as hydrogel. In some embodiments, the apparatus can be configured to deliver or implant the biosensor without applying a force to the biosensor.
