Methods For Improving Performance And Reliability Of Biosensors

View page
US Patent:
6885883, Apr 26, 2005
Filed:
May 14, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/859218
Inventors:
Norman A. Parris - Belmont CA, US
Russell O. Potts - San Francisco CA, US
Michael J. Tierney - San Jose CA, US
Christopher Uhegbu - San Leandro CA, US
Assignee:
Cygnus, Inc. - Redwood City CA
International Classification:
A61B005/05
US Classification:
600347, 600345, 600365, 435 14
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a predictive-kinetic method for use with data processing of a sensor-generated signal, as well as, microprocessors and monitoring systems employing such a predictive-kinetic method. Data from a transient region of a signal is used with suitable models and curve-fitting methods to predict the signal that would be measured for the system at the completion of the reaction. The values resulting from data processing of sensor response using the methods of the present invention are less sensitive to measurement variables.

435 14, 422 60
Abstract:
This invention relates to methods for reducing the presence of a compound in an ionically conductive material, e. g. , for use in iontophoretic devices, wherein the presence of the compound interferes with detecting a selected analyte. Removal of the compound can typically take place either during or after the manufacture of the ionically conductive material or an assembly comprising this material. Also disclosed are methods for generating selectively permeable barriers on the reactive faces of electrodes. Further, this invention relates to hydrogels comprising one or more biocides, as well as assemblies containing such hydrogels.

Electrochemical Moisture Measurement

US Patent:
20200025708, Jan 23, 2020
Filed:
Jul 23, 2018
Appl. No.:
16/042708
Inventors:
- Carlsbad CA, US
Christopher E. UHEGBU - San Diego CA, US
Assignee:
GenMark Diagnostics, Inc. - Carlsbad CA
International Classification:
G01N 27/327
C12Q 1/6825
B01L 3/00
F26B 5/16
Abstract:
Disclosed are methods of measuring moisture. Specifically, methods of measuring moisture on dry or nearly dry surfaces using an electrochemical sensor are disclosed. The method comprises applying a coating comprising an electrolyte to an electrode wherein water in the air can permeate the coating, applying a voltage to the electrode, detecting a current and, determining if the current indicates the presence of moisture. As a voltage is applied, oxygen in the water is reduced and produces a measurable signal. The method includes measuring the amount of or decrease of dissolved oxygen (in the form of water) at the surface of the electrode over time. Reduction of oxygen acts as a surrogate for water/moisture and, as such, the dryness of the surface of the electrode is calculated based on a predetermined relationship between current and dissolved oxygen (in the form of water).
