A system for sensing and measuring ammonia in a breath sample is described. The system includes a sampling means for capturing and directing a breath sample from a subject to an ammonia sensor, the ammonia sensor including a conducting polymer polyaniline sensor. The sampling means includes a breath sample capture chamber, the chamber having an inlet and outlet, the inlet having a first valve through which a breath is exhaled into the sample capture chamber, the outlet having a second valve through which breath surplus to the volume of the chamber is expelled, to provide capture of a breath sample of predefined volume.

System and method for analysing and measuring ammonia levels in a sample

The present invention is directed to a lateral flow assay device for the monitoring and measuring of coagulation and method thereof. Ideally, the invention is directed to a lateral capillary flow device for the monitoring and/or measurement of coagulation in a liquid sample wherein the device comprises a non-porous substrate with a zone for receiving a sample and a defined flow path zone wherein a clotting agent is deposited on at least part of the defined flow path zone to accelerate the coagulation of the liquid sample, enable the formation of an evenly distributed clot along the defined flow path zone and to result in the change in flow rate or cessation of flow of the liquid sample along the defined flow path zone.
