Abstract:
An electrochemical glucose biosensor comprising two electrodes with at least one of electrodes having both a metallic layer and a non-metallic layer in direct contact with the metallic layer. The metallic layer is comprised of a noble metal element. A glucose reactive strip connects the first electrode and the second electrode.
Abstract:
Now, according to the present invention, multiple band optical reflectors are provided that utilize a stack of metal and dielectric layers to create a reflection curve in the visible spectrum that has multiple peak intensities. Reflectors of the present invention comprise at least two dielectric layers that have differing thicknesses, with metal layers disposed therebetween. The use of metal layers in the present invention, as opposed to using alternating layers of dielectric materials, results in a reflector that is substantially thinner than a conventional two dielectric reflector.
Abstract:
A combination of filters for filtering selected wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation is provided on a transparent substrate such as a plastic film or glazing of a window. The combination of filters prevents or attenuates the passage of wavelengths through the substrate into a building, where the passage of the wavelengths into the building could adversely affect people or machinery within the building. The combination of filters is useful improve wireless networks performance by blocking or attenuating undesired electromagnetic interference, and radio frequency interference.

Abstract:
Composite film structures exhibit a predetermined finished color tone comprised of a transparent film layer which exhibits a color deficiency as compared to the finished color tone, and a pigment which is visually associated with, and satisfies the color deficiency of, the film layer. Most preferably, the pigment is provided as a homogenous dispersion in a transparent color-matching layer positioned adjacent to the film layer. Thus, when the film and color-matching layers are viewed collectively as a unit, the perceived color tone will be that of the finished predetermined color tone. That is, the color-matching layer provides visually an additive effect on the perceived color of the composite film structure.
Abstract:
A transparent protective film composite 10, particularly useful as a fade protector, for laying over glazing 22 held in a frame 23 and comprising a UV absorbing transparent polymeric film layer 11 coated on at least one side with a transparent coating 13 containing microparticles 35 of a nominal standard size and which protrude out of the coating 13 by at least 0.5 microns.
