Abstract

The present invention provides an aqueous buffer solution and method and solution for hydrating and calibrating a sensor membrane of a fiber-optic catheter useful for measuring an analyte other than chloride in a physiological milieu. The temperature, gaseous atmosphere, and aqueous buffer solution of the sensor component are controlled throughout the calibration process in order to ensure that the device is calibrated in accordance with its intended use. The solution is chemically compatible with the intended use of the device and provides compensation for evaporative loss, contaminants, or changes in the solution occurring during storage especially in plastic containers.
