摘要： An optochemical sensor comprises a substrate coated with a solid-state optically active pH-sensitive material comprising a hydrophobic plasticised polymer matrix, a protonable photoluminescent dye selected from the group consisting of a hydrophobic metal-free porphyrin and a porphyrin-ketone, and a hydrophobic proton transfer reagent, in which the hydrophobic proton-transfer reagent comprises a salt of a fluorinated derivative of tetraphenylborate. The salt of the substituted tetraphenylborate derivative is selected from a salt of tetrakis[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]borate and a salt of tetrakis-(pentafluorophenyl)borate. The hydrophobic polymer comprises poly(n-butylacrylate) or poly(vinylchloride) and a suitable plasticiser. The use of substituted fluorinated TCPB analogues, in particular sodium salt of tetrakis[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]borate, as a proton transfer agent (PTA), is seen to have excellent solubility in plasticised PVC and poly(n-butylacrylate) matrices and low cytotoxic action on cells. Moreover, by changing the concentration of this PTA in the sensor, one can tune the sensor pKa values and measured range of pH values, to cover the most important physiological range of pH (7.5 - 6.0) and ECA rates.

摘要： A poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) membrane having a highly porous, reticulated, 3-D structure suitable for lateral flow diagnostic applications is described. Also described is a method for producing a poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) membrane that comprises the steps of mixing a suitable amount of PMMA, a solvent and a optionally one of either a co-solvent or a non-solvent to produce a solution, casting a thin film of the solution onto a support, and removal of the solvent from the solution to produce the PMMA membrane. A lateral flow diagnostic device comprising a highly porous PMMA membrane as a reaction membrane is also described.

摘要： A rectifying junction (15) is formed in a conduction path provided in a material (1). A size of the material (1) is smaller than a threshold size in a first dimension, the threshold size being the size required for the material (1) to exhibit sufficient quantum confinement such that it forms a semiconductor. A surface of a first region (17) of the material (1) is arranged to decrease the bandgap of the material such that the first region is conducting. A surface of a second region (19) of the material (1) is arranged to preserve a bandgap such that the second region is semiconducting. The second region (19) is contiguous to the first region (17), such that a rectifying junction (15) is formed at a boundary (21) between the first region and the second region.
