    Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement for continuous determination of a substance comprising a chemically reacting sensor element (21) arranged in or adjacent to a limiting wall of a volume (22) containing the substance, where in a housing (2) of a modular device (1) optical elements to read the sensor element (21) are arranged, comprising at least one light source (35) illuminating the sensor element (21) and at least one sample detector (29) detecting the light scattered by the sensor element (21), and where a front side of the housing (2) comprises a coupling for the sensor element (21), so that the sensor element (21) may be interchangeably and modularly coupled to the front side of the housing (2). A glass body (24) is arranged adjacent to the coupling for direct contact with the sensor element (21) and separate conduits (34, 31) for the illuminating and for the scattered light are arranged rearward of the glass body (24). The modular device (1) allows for easily interchanging the modular sensor element (21) and provides an optical connection between the sensor element (21) and the detector (29) which is steady and allows for high quality measurements.

    Abstract: A sensor module and method for determining and imaging fluorescence lifetime based on the time-of-flight values are disclosed. The sensor module comprises an opaque housing (OH) having a first chamber (CH1) and a second chamber (CH2) which are separated by a non-transparent barrier (LB). Further, it comprises an optical emitter (OE) arranged in the first chamber (CH1) and configured to emit light through a first aperture (AP1). Pulsed excitation light of a specified wavelength is directed to optically excite a fluorescent probe (FP) positioned in the optical path of the excitation light. The module also comprises a detector (MD) arranged in the second chamber (CH2) and configured to detect through a second aperture (AP2) photons originating from the fluorescent probe (FP). The module further comprises: a measurement block (MB) configured to determine a temporal difference between an arrival time of one of the received photons with respect to the emission pulses; a histogram block (HIST) configured to accumulate the difference values in a histogram; a processing circuit (PRC) configured to compute time-of-flight values based on an evaluation of the histogram and then to compute a fluorescence lifetime from the time-of-flight values and generate an output signal (OS) being indicative of the fluorescence lifetime of the fluorescent probe; and a control unit (CU) configured to initiate pulsed emission of the optical emitter (OE).
