Abstract:
A fluid analysis cartridge with improved test reliability and an associated fluid analysis cartridge assembly are disclosed herein. A fluid analysis cartridge assembly includes a sample collecting member having a sample collecting chamber and a fluid analysis cartridge configured to be connected to the sample collecting member. The fluid analysis cartridge includes a sample receiving chamber configured to receive a sample collected by the sample collecting member and at least one hole arranged on one side of the sample receiving chamber and opened by connection of the sample collecting member to the fluid analysis cartridge to the at least one hole. The sample receiving chamber stores a buffer solution to be mixed with the sample.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device is provided. The semiconductor device includes a receptacle which comprises a plurality of pins according to a universal serial bus (USB) type-C receptacle interface and a power delivery integrated circuit (PD IC) which transmits a toggle voltage signal that toggles between a first voltage level and a second voltage level to a first pin among the pins and detects a voltage level of a signal output from the first pin.
Abstract:
A fluid test cartridge, a fluid test apparatus, and a method for controlling the same. The fluid test apparatus includes a housing, and a fluid test cartridge that is accommodated in the housing. The fluid test cartridge includes at least one chamber in which a fluid sample to be tested and a drying reagent can be accommodated. The fluid test apparatus includes a light emitter configured to emit light to the at least one chamber, a light sensor, and a processor configured to detect a concentration of a first material in the fluid sample. The drying reagent includes a non-metallic particle bound to a second material that specifically binds to the first material. Tests can thus be carried out over a wider range of wavelengths, and testing errors can be reduced.
Abstract:
A sample test method, microfluidic device, and test device efficiently and accurately compensates for interference of an interfering substance present in a sample using optical measurement without addition of a separate reagent for detecting the interfering substance. The sample test method includes: measuring an optical characteristic value of a target substance present in a sample; measuring an optical characteristic value of an interfering substance present in the sample; and determining a concentration of the target substance for which interference of the interfering substance is compensated for based on the optical characteristic value of the interfering substance.
