    摘要: A sensor for fluorescence measurement comprising: a light source arranged for emitting light to a sample region, wherein the light source intensity is modulatable; an indicator system located at the sample region, said indicator system comprising: a receptor for an analyte; and a fluorophore associated with said receptor, wherein the fluorophore has a fluorescence lifetime that changes in response to the presence of analyte at the receptor; a single photon avalanche diode arranged to receive fluorescence light emitted from said sample region in response to the light incident on the sample region from the light source, and to generate an output signal; a driver arranged to modulate the light source intensity at a first frequency; a bias voltage source arranged to apply a bias voltage to the single photon avalanche diode, wherein the bias voltage is modulated at a second frequency, different from the first frequency, and wherein the bias voltage is above the breakdown voltage of the single photon avalanche diode; and a signal processor arranged to determine information related to a fluorescence lifetime of the fluorophore based on at least the output signal of the single photon avalanche diode.

    摘要: A process for calibrating a glucose sensor under sterile conditions includes providing separate, sterile, glucose-containing calibration fluids, each having a different glucose concentration, and in turn providing these fluids to a sensing zone containing a sensing probe of a glucose sensor. Each solution is typically, in turn, propelled into the sensing zone, thus flushing out used fluid already present in the sensing zone. The process provides rapid calibration of a glucose sensor in a sterile fashion and is therefore appropriate for point-of-use calibration.
