Researchers evaluate whether lactate sensors can contribute to sports physiology

While there are a growing number of wearable lactate sensors available for sports and fitness, there hasn’t necessarily been an improvement in the understanding of this nascent technology—and the debate continues over the usefulness of monitoring lactate in sweat. A recent article in ACS Sensors, a journal of the American Chemical Society, says that despite a recent history of contradictory—and incomplete—evidence, sports physiology is zeroing in on whether this technology can improve performance while preventing injury.
