Latest Patent Applications
Athanasios Apostolidis has filed a patent application for an "Optical Sensor and Measuring Apparatus for Quantitatively Detecting an Analyte in a Sample." This invention involves a sensor designed to quantitatively detect an analyte in a sample by utilizing the optical behavior of at least one dye that depends on the analyte. The dye is contained in a medium, and a restrictor is incorporated to mechanically limit volume changes of the medium. The osmolality in the medium is set higher than the highest sample osmolality for which the sensor is intended. This design significantly reduces osmolality cross-sensitivity, enhancing the sensor's accuracy. The restrictor can be integrated into the medium in various forms, such as a membrane or a carrier plate with recesses.
