A sensor (106, 106) for sensing turbidity of a liquid sample (202) includes an illumination source (254), a scattered illumination detector (256), and a transparent, hydrophilic layer (302, 410). The illumination source (254) directs incident illumination (266) into the liquid sample (202) without passing through a gas. The scattered illumination detector (256) is disposed to detect at, least some illumination scattered in the sample. The transparent, hydrophilic layer (302, 410) is interposed between the source (254) and the liquid sample (202), and interposed between the detector (256) and the liquid sample (202). The transparent, hydrophilic layer (302, 410) inhibits bubble formation within the liquid sample (202) proximate at least the incident illumination (266). A method for sensing turbidity is also disclosed.

L'invention concerne un capteur de turbidité (106, 106) permettant de détecter la turbidité d'un échantillon liquide (202), qui comprend : une source lumineuse (254), un détecteur de lumière diffusée (256), et une couche hydrophile transparente (302, 410). La source lumineuse (254) dirige une lumière incidente (266) dans l'échantillon liquide (202) sans passer à travers un gaz. Le détecteur de lumière diffusée (256) est conçu pour détecter au moins une certaine quantité de lumière diffusée dans l'échantillon. La couche hydrophile transparente (302, 410) est positionnée entre la source (254) et l'échantillon liquide (202), et entre le détecteur (256) et l'échantillon liquide (202). La couche hydrophile transparente (302, 410) inhibe la formation de bulles au sein de l'échantillon liquide (202) à proximité au moins de la lumière incidente (266). L'invention concerne également un procédé de détection de turbidité.
