An apparatus for sensing an analyte is described, wherein the apparatus includes an interface contact element that is used to establish an interface with a quantity of body fluid. The interface contact element is adapted to facilitate diffusion of a target analyte across the interface essentially free of net mass fluid transport. The quantity of body fluid is exposed to the interface contact element through micro-pathways. The apparatus can also include a sensing material adapted to sense the target analyte with at least one analytical method. Methods for using the apparatus in a non- or minimally invasive monitoring technique are also described. Figure (1) illustrates a non- limiting embodiment of the apparatus used to test the principles of the invention.

L'invention concerne un appareil de détection d'un analyte. Cet appareil comprend un élément de contact d'interface utilisé pour établir une interface avec une quantité de fluide corporel. Cet élément de contact d'interface est conçu pour faciliter une diffusion d'un analyte cible à travers l'interface essentiellement exempte de transport fluidique de masse nette. La quantité de fluide corporel est exposée à l'élément de contact d'interface par le biais de microvoies. Cet appareil peut également comprendre une matière de détection conçue pour détecter l'analyte cible par au moins une méthode analytique. Des méthodes d'utilisation de l'appareil dans une technique de surveillance non invasive ou minimalement invasive sont également décrites. La figure (1) illustre un mode de réalisation de non-limitation de l'appareil utilisé pour tester les principes de l'invention.
