摘要:
A planar oxygen sensor has an insulating substrate, a cathode formed on the insulating substrate generally at the center thereof; another electrode formed on the insulating substrate in a region other than the region of the cathode, a gas permeable membrane stretched to cover these electrodes and having its peripheral portion supported on the insulating substrate, and an electrolytic solution charged between the gas permeable membrane and the insulating substrate. A surface of the cathode is substantially in contact with the gas permeable membrane and is formed at a position higher than the gas permeable membrane support portion of the insulating substrate. A portion of the insulating substrate surface other than the region where the cathode is formed is recessed. Because the layer of electrolytic solution on the cathode is thin, oxygen molecules passing through the gas permeable membrane can immediately serve for the reduction at the cathode, thereby increasing the response speed of the planar oxygen sensor. Also, the amount of electrolytic solution is increased by the recess to extend the life of the sensor.

摘要:
The present invention aims to simplify the structure and a fabrication method of an ion-selective electrode in an ion concentration measuring device that measures an anion, particularly a chloride ion, in a biological component. To this end, in a potential difference measuring unit, a quaternary ammonium salt derivative serving as a ligand for an anion is immobilized to the surface of a gold electrode by using as a linker an insulative molecule forming a self-assembled monolayer. The potential difference measuring unit measures an electromotive force generated with anion binding, as an interface potential change on the surface of the gold electrode. In order to reduce the influence of adsorption of impurities on the electrode surface, a high-molecular weight polymer is physically adsorbed on the gold electrode and thus used when a biological component is measured.
摘要:
A gas sensor e.g. an oxygen sensor for testing body fluids, has a laminated structure with a cavity for holding a gel or liquid electrolyte in contact with a cathode and anodes formed by deposition on layers of the structure. The cathode contacts the electrolyte cavity only at a small-volume reaction region defined e.g. in a groove which communicates with a larger, laminar volume of the cavity formed e.g. by a spacer layer having through apertures. A small gas-permeable window opposes the cathode at the reaction region. The laminar construction can be mass-produced. The enlarged electrolyte reservoir lengthens the sensor life.
摘要:
A crown ether derivative that acts as cation capturing ligand and alkanethiol having a longer carbon chain than a linker are immobilized, coexisting together, on the surface of a gold electrode, by using as the linker an insulating molecule (e.g., alkanethiol) that forms self-assembled monolayers. Electromotive force produced in association with cation coordination is measured by a potentiometer through a change in interfacial potential on the surface of the gold electrode. Further, an insulated gate field effect transistor formed on the same substrate as the gold electrode is used as the potentiometer. Furthermore, a straight-chain polymer physically adsorbed on the gold electrode is used in order to reduce the influence of the adsorption of impurities on the surface of the electrode during biological sample measurement.
摘要:
An ion sensor has a flow path through which a sample flows. An ion-exchange membrane is in contact with the sample in the sample flow path. An internal solution is provided on one side of the ion-exchange membrane. An internal electrode is provided so as to come in contact with the internal solution. The surface of the ion-exchange membrane that does not come in contact with the sample is coated with a two-liquid-mixed epoxy resin.
