The present invention provides systems and methods for analyzing glucose present in exhaled breath condensate (EBC). In certain embodiments of the invention, electrochemical- or coulometric-based sensing technologies are used to analyze EBC for the presence and/or concentration of glucose.
摘要:
The present invention provides systems and methods for determining enzymatic competency, which is important in determining whether a patient may suffer an adverse drug reaction, has a disease associated with defects in specific enzymatic function, and/or has an enzyme defect that is likely to cause pathophysiology. As contemplated herein, a parent molecular entity is administered to a patient in whom enzymatic competency is to be determined. A sample of the patient's bodily fluid is exposed to a sensor of the invention to distinguish, detect, and quantify a detectable entity in the bodily fluid. Sensor-acquired data regarding the detectable entity is used to determine enzymatic competency. Preferably, a sample of a patient's exhaled breath is collected and exposed to the sensor of the invention. Types of sensor systems of the invention include, but are not limited to, surface resonance arrays; microelectromechanical sensors (such as microcantilever-based technology); molecularly imprinted polymer sensors; amplifying fluorescent sensor technology; aptamer-based sensor technology; SAW sensors; infrared sensors; fuel cells; chemical reactors; and pH sensitive sensors.
摘要:
Systems and methods are provided for monitoring use of hand washing agents to determine compliance with hand hygiene guidelines. A hand washing agent is provided with a detectable, volatile compound, such as odors, which is then rubbed onto a subject's hands using the subject's hand washing technique. After the hand washing event, the subject's hand is then exposed to an detector (such as a badge), which includes a sensor capable of detecting the volatile compound, and an indicator that communicates detection of the volatile compound, indicating use of the hand washing agent and hand hygiene compliance.
