Patent

CA 2671915

The invention is directed to optical sensors for measuring clinically relevant analytes, their methods of manufacture, and their various uses. In an effort to develop a dry calibration method for the optical sensors of the invention it is discovered that water content inside or in the immediate vicinity of a such a sensor can have a major impact on fluorescence intensity (i.e., a sensor's response in the dry state). Thus, one of the objectives of the invention is the elimination of the bias of sensor responses measured at different humidity environments. The invention concerns a multi-layered laminate comprising inter alia a humidity control layer and a spreading layer. Said layers comprise a water-insoluble porous matrix, including a plurality of channels or through-holes at least some of which extend from one side of the layer to an opposing side, a portion of said holes or channels being filled with a water-soluble, solid, polymeric substance.

L'invention concerne des capteurs optiques servant à mesurer des analytes cliniquement pertinents, ainsi que des procédés de fabrication et diverses utilisations de ces capteurs optiques. Dans le cadre de la mise au point d'un procédé d'étalonnage à sec pour les capteurs optiques selon l'invention, on a découvert que le taux d'humidité à l'intérieur ou à proximité immédiate d'un tel capteur peut avoir un impact majeur sur l'intensité de fluorescence (c.-à-d. une réponse du capteur à l'état sec). Ainsi, l'un des objectifs de l'invention est l'élimination du biais des réponses du capteur mesurées dans différentes conditions d'humidité.
