Provided are mass and heat flow measurement sensors comprising a microresonator, such as a quartz crystal microbalance; a heat flow sensor (c), such as an isothermal heat conduction calorimeter; and a heat sink (d) coupled thermally to the heat flow sensor. The sensors may be used to measure changes in mass due to a sample (8) on a surface of the microresonator and also to measure heat flow from the sample (8) on the surface of the microresonator by utilizing the heat flow sensor, which is coupled thermally to the microresonator. Also provided are methods for measuring the mass of a sample (8) and the flow of heat from the sample (8) to the heat sink (d) by utilizing such mass and heat flow measurement sensors.

L'invention concerne des capteurs de mesure de débit massique et de flux thermique comprenant un microrésonateur, tel qu'une microbalance à quartz; un capteur (c) de flux thermique, tel qu'un calorimètre de conduction thermique isotherme; et un puits (d) thermique couplé thermiquement au capteur de flux thermique. Les capteurs peuvent être utilisés pour mesurer les changements de masse dus à la présence d'un échantillon (8) sur une surface du microrésonateur, et également pour mesurer le flux thermique à partir de l'échantillon (8) sur la surface du microrésonateur au moyen d'un capteur de flux thermique, thermiquement couplé au microrésonateur. L'invention concerne également des procédés de mesure de la masse d'un échantillon (8) et du flux thermique entre l'échantillon (8) et le puits (d) thermique au moyen de capteurs de mesure de débit massique et de flux thermique.
