Definitions
- This invention relates to apparatus for and methods of measuring certain properties of a fluid particularly although not exclusively, bodily fluids and the concentrations of certain analytes therein. At least some aspects of the invention relate particularly to the measurement of glucose levels in blood and other body fluids such as cutaneous (interstitial) and sub-cutaneous fluid.
- test simplification allows the assay to be performed by relatively untrained personnel in a “non-laboratory” setting.
- cardiac marker tests configured in a lateral flow immunoassay format with labelled antibody allow for early assessment of potential myocardial infarct.
- the invention provides a device for measuring the concentration of an analyte in a fluid, comprising a support member, analyte sensing means provided thereon for measuring said concentration and a microchannel in fluid communication with said analyte sensing means for conveying said fluid to said sensing means.
- a microchannel is used to convey the sample fluid to the sensing means.
- microchannel refers to a channel, of any suitable cross-section, whose lateral dimension is between approximately 10-500 ⁇ m.
- microchannels are beneficial for a number of reasons in the context of an analyte sensing device.
- a small sample volume is beneficial since it means that it is easier to provide a sufficient volume for a valid test.
- the volume of fluid required to carry out an assay is correspondingly small, in addition the microchannel allows to handle flow rates between 10 and 500 nL/min with a high resolution of the measurement over time, due to the low channel volume.
- the analyte sensing means can be arranged in any suitable configuration depending on the type of sensing means used (electrochemical, optochemical etc.).
- the analyte sensing means comprises one or more reagents to react with said analyte and thereby give a measurable output.
- a reagent may be located anywhere, but preferably the reagent or at least one of the reagents is provided on a wall of the microchannel. This arrangement is beneficial since it means that no additional volume is required in order for the sample liquid to be brought fully into contact with the reagent—i.e. the contact area is optimised.
- the invention provides a device for measuring the concentration of an analyte in a fluid, comprising a support member and a microchannel provided on said support member for conveying said fluid across the support member, wherein one or more reagents for reacting with said analyte is coated on a wall of the microchannel.
- such a device further comprises means for sensing the analyte—for example an electrochemical or a photometric detector.
- the devices set out hereinabove may be used for measuring any suitable analyte in any suitable fluid.
- the invention finds particularly beneficial application in the measurement of analytes in human or animal bodily fluids.
- a suitable sample of bodily fluid may be applied to the device.
- the device is integrated with means for extracting the fluid.
- this comprises means for penetrating the skin—in the case where the sample fluid is blood or interstitial fluid.
- a skin penetration member such as hollow needle, solid lance or the like.
- the device can be used both to collect the sample fluid and to measure the concentration of the target analyte—or at least give an output from which the concentration can be measured.
- the present invention provides a device for measuring the concentration of an analyte in a fluid, comprising a support member, means provided on the support member for sensing said analyte, wherein said support member further comprises fluid extraction means arranged to direct fluid to said analyte sensing means via a conduit on the support member.
- a fluid extraction means preferably a skin penetration means, most preferably a needle, lance or the like, is provided on a support member of a device for measuring analyte concentration.
- skin penetration means e.g. needle
- support member e.g. test strip
- the preferred embodiments require a user merely to puncture their skin with a needle or the like and then blood or interstitial fluid may be conducted automatically onto or into the test member.
- Devices for extracting interstitial fluid are shown in the afore-mentioned Integ patents and International patent application PCT/US01/09673 (International Publication WO 01/72220 published 4 Oct. 2001).
- the combined needle/test member would normally be used in conjunction with a separate, non-disposable, measuring device for measuring the analyte concentration e.g. by means of the output of an analyte-reagent reaction, where appropriate.
- the dimensions of the needle, lance or the like may be suited to the particular application.
- any mechanism for extracting interstitial fluid may be used with the present invention. While the present invention will be described with reference to a shallow penetration needle, the invention is application to any technique for obtaining a body fluid.
- a standard hypodermic needle several centimetres in length may be employed. Whilst the device may be used to sample interstitial fluid or blood from the cutaneous and/or the subcutaneous layers, in preferred embodiments however, the penetration member is of such a length that it penetrates substantially the cutaneous layer of skin.
- substantially the cutaneous layer it means that whilst it is the intention to sample fluid from the cutaneous layer, it cannot be ruled out that some sampling from the sub-cutaneous may occur.
- the cutaneous layer has a high density of blood capillaries which helps to ensure that the levels of analytes in interstitial fluid reliably reflect those in the blood.
- the actual length of the penetration means will depend on the angle at which it is intended to be inserted.
- the length may by of the order of several millimetres e.g. up to approximately 7 to 10 millimetres.
- substantially perpendicular insertion is intended and the length is less than 2 mm, preferably less than 1.5 mm.
- a length of approximately 1.4 mm is appropriate.
- a length as short as 0.5 mm may be preferred
- test member may have just one skin penetration member, or alternatively a plurality may be provided.
- the penetration means may comprise a sufficiently short standard needle, possibly shortened if necessary. More preferably the penetration means comprises a microneedle.
- a microneedle is hereby defined as a needle with a length sufficient to penetrate the cutaneous layer of human skin without substantially penetrating the subcutaneous layer. Such a needle typically has length less than 2 mm, preferably between 0.4 and 1.6 mm.
- the outer diameter is preferably less than 0.5 mm, most preferably between 0.1 and 0.3 mm.
- the penetration means need not be integrated with the support member, but preferably is.
- the comments above regarding this arrangement apply, with the additional benefit noted here that preferred embodiments of this arrangement can provide a compact disposable device which gives rise to substantially no pain, in use and obviates the need for a user to come into contact with or even see the bodily fluid concerned.
- Preferred embodiments of the invention use a reagent-based measurement.
- Many different reagent-based analyte measurements are available to those skilled in the art, allowing the principles of the invention to find wide application.
- an optochemical i.e. either fluorescent or luminescent—or an electrochemical technique could be used.
- One preferred embodiment comprises analyte sensing means comprising a mediated amperometric enzyme electrode.
- a ferrocene-mediated electron transfer from a glucose-oxidase catalysed reaction is a suitable means for detecting the level of glucose in a body fluid.
- Other enzymes such as lactate oxidase or lactate dehydrogenase and cholesterol oxidase dehydrogenase may be used to measure lactate and cholesterol levels respectively.
- use of the above electron-transfer mediator is a non-limiting example and that other electron transfer mediators well known in the art could be used, for example, hexa-cyanoferrate (ferricyanide), oxygen or components of the respiratory chain (i.e. cytochromes).
- the embodiment will comprise an analyte sensing means which operates in conjunction with a test meter to give the measurement.
- the member may comprise the appropriate reagent or dye for performing a calorimetric test in association with light sensitive means in the test meter. It will be seen that such arrangements are consistent with the test device being disposable since the costly elements of the sensing mechanism, such as the light sensitive means, electronic circuity etc., can be placed in a non-disposable test meter.
- a plurality of conduits direct fluid to be measured to respective analyte sensing means.
- the sensing means may be different so as to measure or test for different analytes in the fluid. Preferably however they are the same or at least are for measuring the same analyte.
- the invention provides a device for measuring the concentration of an analyte in a fluid, comprising a support member and a plurality of analyte sensing means provided thereon for measuring said concentration, wherein said device further comprises a plurality of conduits such that each of said sensing means has a conduit associated therewith, said conduits serving in use to direct said fluid to respective sensing means.
- the device whether it comprises a single or a plurality of conduit/analyte sensors, may be used to continuously measure the concentration of the analyte over a period of time. Periodic measurements may be taken i.e. the fluid is “sampled” at various periods over time, for example every 30 minutes.
- Fluid may continuously flow through the device or may be temporarily stopped by, for example, hydrophobic gates.
- the sensors may be of the single measurement type, after which the device is discarded or fluid is diverted to another conduit to perform another measurement.
- the total time taken to complete a measurement cycle or the time taken between measurements could vary and would depend upon the degree of monitoring or the analyte of interest.
- the plurality of conduits would allow for switching from sensor to another after a particular period of time, by diverting fluid flow from one conduit to another. Switching enables measurements to be performed without interruption to the fluid extraction or without having to recalibrate the sensors, which are known to drift after a period of time due to factors such as electrode fouling etc.
- analyte monitoring may be made on a truly continuous basis, without the user having to recalibrate or interact with the system.
- An advantage of performing a single measurement either in the case of a device with a single or plurality of microchannels is that drifting of the signal over time is no longer an issue that has to be considered and consequently simpler reagent chemistries may be employed in the analyte sensors. For example in the case of an electrochemical detection system, results may be obtained in as little as five seconds or less. Furthermore, such devices would not require storage reservoirs for collection of the waste fluid, since the waste fluid would be stored in the microchannel conduits themselves.
- the sensing means may be electrochemical or non-electrochemical in nature—e.g. of the fluorescent or chemi-luminescent calorimetric sort.
- the sensing means may comprises an enzyme-coated electrode in the case of electrochemical measurement, or in the case of fluorescent colorimetric sensing the sensing means would comprise a suitable reagent dye.
- the term ‘sensing means’ does not necessarily refer to a complete assembly for giving a final reading, but rather to a means on the support member which yields an output which may be read to give a measure of the analyte concentration, e.g. by a separate test meter.
- Such devices according to embodiments of the invention as set out above could be arranged to be used in a mode similar to conventional test strips i.e. where a single fluid sample is placed on the device and is measured.
- devices of the sort set out above may be arranged to measure the concentration of any suitable analyte.
- the analyte's concentration may simply be an indirect indication of the property of the sample fluid which it is desired to monitor.
- a detection reagent e.g. an enzyme substrate or an antigen
- the added detection reagent or the product of the enzyme-catalysed reaction comprises the analyte.
- Devices in accordance with the invention can therefore be arranged to measure such analytes—i.e. it will be seen that such devices may be used to measure the activity of enzymes in a body fluid sample, or test whether antibodies to a particular antigen are present in the body fluid.
- the device is arranged to measure an analyte concentration directly—i.e. it is the concentration itself which is being monitored.
- concentration itself which is being monitored.
- An example of such a measurement would be glucose in blood, the concentration of which is an important parameter for those suffering from diabetes.
- the measuring device is suitable for measuring the concentration of an analyte, e.g. glucose, in blood or interstitial fluid.
- the device is preferably suitable for attachment to the skin of the subject who is to be measured.
- the subject may be an animal but,is preferably human.
- measurements of the concentration of the substance in the subject's blood or interstitial fluid can be carried out repeatedly over a period of time.
- the devices comprise a penetration member with a sufficiently length substantially to penetrate the cutaneous layer of skin, most preferably integrally formed with the support member. It is further preferred that such devices comprises at least one microchannel for conveying the interstitial fluid to one or more of the sensing means.
- the present invention provides a device for measuring the concentration of a given analyte in a bodily fluid comprising means for attaching the device to the skin of a subject and a plurality of sensing means for making a plurality of measurements of said concentration over a period of time.
- this aspect of the invention provides a device which can perform a plurality of measurements in situ, that is without user intervention being required. This has clear benefits in removing some constraints on the number, frequency and regularity with which measurements can be performed.
- Each sensing element in the device is designed to be used for a certain predetermined time during which the signal will not significantly drift over time. In this sense “significantly” represents the amount of drift permitted such the measurement result would not be affected by an clinically unacceptable amount.
- fluid is then switched to a new sensor and the process repeated.
- the device is provided with flow control means for influencing the flow of fluid to the sensing means. Any suitable flow control method may be employed with corresponding means to affect such a control method. For example Piezo-electric pumping, electrokinetic or mechanical methods such as ‘unblocking’ the flow along a selected conduit.—e.g. by allowing a gas bubble to escape or by opening a valve.
- the flow control means comprises a hydrophobic gate situated within the conduit/microchannel.
- a hydrophobic gate as herein disclosed refers to a hydrophobic surface region within a hydrophilic channel such that the flow of fluid is interrupted. By changing the hydrophobic nature of the gate, i.e. by making the hydrophobic region more hydrophilic, fluid may then be allowed to flow along the channel. Hydrophobic gates may be used to control the flow of fluid within a single microchannel or may be used to switch or redirect flow from one microchannel to another.
- the hydrophobic nature of the gate may be maintained as it is and a increased pumping force (e.g. provided by a mechanical or electro-osmotic pump) may be applied in order for the fluid to breach the hydrophobic gate.
- a pumping force e.g. provided by a mechanical or electro-osmotic pump
- the device is arranged to direct fluid sequentially to each of the sensing means.
- the timing of the direction of the fluid to the sensing means could be pre-configured for example by software within the meter, such that the fluid is switched after a predetermined period of time.
- the device comprises, or is adapted to interface with, control means to control said direction of the fluid to the sensing means. Such control is preferably automatic.

- the chamber 129 has an optically transparent upper surface. This arranged is to be aligned with the tip of an optical fibre in a modified control unit (not shown) so that the fibre is approximately 2 to 3 mm above the dye spot. The other end of the fibre is in optical contact with a light source and light sensitive diode sensor which is sensitive to a particular wavelength of light (for example 438 nm in the case of ABTS) emitted by the transformed dye. The degree of absorption therefore gives a measure of the amount of transformed dye and thus the amount of glucose present.
- a light source and light sensitive diode sensor which is sensitive to a particular wavelength of light (for example 438 nm in the case of ABTS) emitted by the transformed dye.
- glucose present in the fluid acts as a substrate for GOD, which breaks the glucose down into glucono-1,5-lactone and hydrogen peroxide. POD subsequently catalyses the oxidation of the leuco-dye using the hydrogen peroxide, resulting in the production of a coloured dye which is subsequently detected.
- any suitable leuco-dye may be used, e.g. Tetramethylbenzidine-Hydrochloride, or 3-Methyl-2-Benzothiazoline-Hydrazone in conjunction with 3-Dimethylamino-Benzoicacide.

Similar construction to that of the previous embodiments and thus it has a hollow needle 106 , for example but not limited to 1.4 mm long and 0.3 mm wide which penetrates substantially the cutaneous layer of the skin 113 of the user.
- the needle 106 also acts as an electrode which serves to extract fluid from the skin. At least one electrode 108 is provided such it makes contact with the skin. As shown in FIG. 5, the needle is poised at a positive potential. By applying a voltage difference across the electrodes 106 and 108 an electric field is generated along the needle 106 and manifold 111 which stimulates the skin and increases the perfusion of interstitial fluid out of the skin.
- FIGS. 8 a to 8 d show two further embodiments of the invention.

- the lance 119 of the strip 115 in FIG. 8 a is essentially V shaped in cross section and tapers towards its tip. This means that when it is used to puncture a user's skin 123 , as is shown in FIG. 8 b , the two sides of the V force back a portion of the skin 123 , forcing the epidermis to form the remaining wall 123 of an enclosed channel 124 .
- an open channel is effectively transformed into a closed one when it is inserted into skin.

- the user pierces their skin with the lance 119 and interstitial fluid or blood is made to flow, by means of capillary action, through channel 124 formed by the lance ( 119 ) and the skin 122 , into the microchannel 118 and thus over the electrochemical detector 121 .
- the user then withdraws the strip 115 and inserts the opposite end into a conventional style test meter which makes electrical connection to the three conductive tracks 321 .
- the meter is an integral part of the lancing system such that the user does not need to insert the strip into the meter and is automatically provided with the measurement result.

Fluid then can accumulate in the pooling area 123 a and flow from the pooling area 123 a into the capillary channel 121 a as well as flow directly from the skin into the capillary channel 121 a for passage to the microchannel 118 .
- a lance 119 b is of a design similar to that of FIG. 8 e is shown but excluding the large pooling area 123 a . Elimination of the pooling area 123 a permits a narrower transverse dimension to the lance 119 b.

- the shape and the volume to the distribution depression 416 is preferably a disk shaped void with 1 mm diameter and 100 ⁇ m depth. These dimensions and shape may vary depending upon the size, number and flow rate of individual channels.
- a portion of the micro-channel 402 between the distribution depression 416 and a ground or reference electrode 420 may be restricted in size to reduce flow rate variability and therefore control the rate of flow.
- Means may be provided within the device for the removal of undesirable gas-bubbles from the fluid sample.
- Such means could comprise a filter positioned between the needle and the common reservoir.
- the electrochemical detection system consists of an electrode system shown best in FIG. 19.
- the electrode system includes at least one working electrode 418 (by way of non-limiting example, gold or carbon) and a reference electrode 420 (e.g., silver/silver-chloride).
- the reference electrode 420 is circular to serve as a common electrode for each channel 402 , thus reducing the number of contacts necessary.
- each channel can be provided with a unique reference electrode.
- Each channel 402 has a unique dedicated working electrode 418 .
- a counter electrode (not shown) may be added.
- the electrodes 418 , 420 are disposed to contact fluid in the channel 402 .
- the channels 402 are formed as open channels in a substrate layer.
- the electrodes 420 , 418 are screen-printed on an overlying laminate layer which also serves to seal the channels 402 .
- the working electrode material is dependent on the enzyme ink being used. For example, one can distinguish between a redox-mediated system for the carbon working electrodes and an oxygen mediated system for the gold or platinum electrodes.
- an organo-metal-complex (which is linked to polymers forming the ink body) acts as a conductor and electron acceptor for the enzyme.
- the electrons are transported by the redox-mediator directly or by an electron hopping mechanism from redox-center to redox-center to the working electrode.
- the mediator is finally recycled to its original redox-state before it can react with the enzyme protein in a new cycle.
- glucose oxidase from aspergillus niger (GOD EC 1.1.3.4) and PQQ dependent glucose dehydrogenase (GDH EC 1.1.99.17).
- the enzyme ink is a cross-linked hydrophilic gel allowing the penetration of sample fluid but restricting the movement of the enzyme thus it is fixed to the electrode. This is an important property of the enzyme ink because the concentration of the enzyme has an effect upon the total response of the sensor. The same effect can be observed with the redox-mediator, due to the small molecular weight it cannot be entrapped in the same way as enzymes. Therefore, in the preferred embodiment, it is preferred to link the redox-mediator molecule to the large molecules such as the enzymes, proteins, or to the polymers of the ink material directly. In case of oxygen-mediated systems the situation is simpler.
- the enzyme ink needs only to contain enzyme as active component, the oxygen itself is dissolved in the sample fluid and is transferred to the sensor from the sample stream in the same instance as glucose.
- the oxygen-mediated system can be created with GOD based on the ability of the enzyme to build hydrogen peroxide from oxygen and glucose.
- Ox oxidized mediator species e.g. K 3 [Fe(CN) 6 ], p-benzoquinon, Ferrocinium
- Red reduced mediator species e.g. K 4 [Fe(CN) 6 ], hydroquinone, Ferrocene
- Hydrogen peroxide is a very reactive molecule, which can function as mediator to transport electrons for the enzyme to the electrode surface.
- the electrodes are deposited on a film such as polystyrene or polycarbonate of about 10-200 ⁇ m and, more preferably, about 30 to 75 ⁇ m) using screen-printing technology. Subsequently to this print step the working electrode is coated with ink containing enzyme and in the case of carbon working electrodes with an ink containing enzyme and mediator.
- a film such as polystyrene or polycarbonate of about 10-200 ⁇ m and, more preferably, about 30 to 75 ⁇ m
- This coating step could be accomplished with the same printing methods as used for the electrode material. Thus the production could be done in one machine with different print heads or stations on a continuous web. Such a process is described in “Continuous Process for Manufacture of Disposable Electrochemical Sensor”, U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/537599.
- FIG. 19 A schematic diagram of one measurement channel 402 is shown in FIG. 19.
- the channel 402 extents from the needle 410 and distribution depression 416 and through the main channel 402 (of dimensions for example of 200 ⁇ m ⁇ 100 ⁇ m) containing the electrodes 418 , 420 .
- a flow restricted portion of the channel 402 namely a small cross section (e.g., 30 ⁇ m ⁇ 30 ⁇ m) may be provided between the distribution depression 416 and the common electrode 420 .
- a flow restriction levels out different flow rates during the extraction of the body fluid. These flow rate differences are caused due to the changing physiological conditions during the extraction. In general, one could observe a higher flow rate at the beginning of a sampling period compared to the extraction rate at the end. A thin capillary can counter-act this behavior.
- the electrodes 418 , 420 are not part of the injection molded base plate of the chip 400 . Instead, they are placed on top of the open U-shaped or rectangular channel 402 of the base plate of the chip 400 in a separate lamination step.
- the waste reservoir 406 stores the sample solution after its evaluation by the electrochemical sensing in channel 402 .
- the size of the waste reservoir 406 defines the amount of time one channel can theoretically be used.
- the controller can activate the next channel to continue with the detection of glucose in the body fluid of a patient.
- the reservoir 406 is large enough to support more then a two-hour measurement.
- a chip 400 with twelve channels 402 can run for 24 to 28 hours allowing the patient a convenient change to a new chip (e.g. during his daily morning routines).
- reservoirs 406 larger then 5 ⁇ L (which is enough to support the flow for more then two hours with a flow rate of 30 nL/min) could allow longer runtimes.
- the entire chip 400 could last for more than one day.
- the number of channels in a device is not limited and may vary depending upon the measurement technique, the length of monitoring period and the size of the device and could exceed 100 .
- FIGS. 20 a , 20 b show two different representative embodiments of the waste reservoir 406 , 406 a .
- Waste reservoir 406 is a meander-shaped extension of the channel 402 . While easy to manufacture, such a design can build up high back pressure in the system, due to the weaker capillary force, then the design of waste reservoir 406 a and is not as space efficient.
- the column filled reservoir 406 a has advantages compared to the meander-shaped reservoir 406 regarding the size and the integration into a 12-channel chip 400 a . It could be deeper than the reservoir 406 while producing a higher capillary force to take up the extracted and evaluated sample fluid from channel 402 a .
- waste channel 406 a resembles a plurality of capillaries with a cross-section for example of 400 ⁇ m ⁇ 400 ⁇ m compared to only one-capillary with the same cross-section in the design of waste reservoir 406 .
- the shape of the columns is not limited to simple squares. They could be formed as circles, pentagons, hexagons, octagons or the like. Concerning the flow characteristics inside a column field the hexagon shaped columns shown are the most preferred version.
- the size and geometry of the channels and reservoirs may vary.
- the base plate of the chip 400 can be produced in a molding process, which is optimized for the small features and structures.
- plastics can be used for the base plate of the chip 400 (e.g. polystyrene, polycarbonate, polymethymethacrylate, polyester, and others).
- Preferred polymers are polycarbonates. These allow a subsequent laser finishing to generate a secondary micro- or nano-structure (e.g., any desired patterns or other finishing can be formed in the micro-channel).
- Polystyrene shows preferable characteristics in the lamination process. Thus polycarbonate could be used as the lower laminate and polystyrene used as the upper.
- the chip 400 itself consists of three major part a) the chip base plate with all the fluidic elements described above, b) the electrochemical detection system screen printed on a polymer foil, and c) the sampling hub with extraction needle. These elements are described in the foregoing sections.
- the most advantageous process is an adhesive-free thermal bonding process of the pre-printed foil to the chip base plate.
- the bonding happens at an elevated temperature with a stamping tool or a hot roller press.
- the temperature is close to the glass transition temperature (T g ) of the polymer thus the low molecular weight portion of the polymer will become mobile and tacky while the high molecular weight portion of the polymer still supports the integrity of the foil or film.
- T g glass transition temperature
- the low molecular weight portion of the polymer will bond both pieces (base plate and foil with electrodes) together, additionally it will follow the shape of the printed electrodes, which can be between 5 and 30 ⁇ m thick.
- the switching mechanism 404 allows the replacement of a used electrochemical system after a predetermined period of time.
- an electrochemical system is prone to fouling due to precipitation or adsorption of proteins or other species on the electrode surface.
- a different strategy is the protection of the electrode by a semi permeable membrane, which allows the analyte to pass through to the electrode but not a large protein (or a red blood cell). This concept is adopted in classical oxygen electrodes.
- the chip 400 uses a mixture of both concepts: a plurality of electrodes in diff rent channels as well as an electrode protected by screen printable membrane (see German patent DE10052066.9 and related International patent application PCT/EP01/12073). This allows the sensor electrodes to operate for several hours before the fouling shows a significant effect on the results and before the controller is switching to the next channel.
- FIG. 21 shows a schematic diagram of the switching mechanism 404 .
- the switching system 404 includes electrodes 422 separate from the electrochemical detector electrodes 418 , 420 .
- the switching electrodes 404 allow local heating of a very small area on the thin foil such as polystyrene 424 overlying a well 426 .
- the well 426 is in fluid flow communication with the end of the reservoir 406 except that the fluid flow is normally blocked by the foil 424 . Due to this blockage, air cannot escape from the channel 402 and fluid from the distribution depression 416 cannot flow into the channel 402 . Upon heating of the foil, this blockage is removed thus allowing the fluid to enter the channel.
- the temperature at the center point of the overlying electrodes 422 i.e., overlying the foil 424 above the well 426 ) very quickly rises over the glass transition temperature (T g ) of the foil in response to an application of a small current in the range of some ⁇ fraction (1/1000) ⁇ Ampere with the effect that the foil 424 forms an opening above the hydrophobic well 426 allowing air in the channel 402 and reservoir 406 to vent into the well 426 .
- the gas pressure in the channel 402 is relieved and fluid can flow from the distribution depression 416 and into the channel 402 .
- the hydrophobicity of the well 426 prevents the sample fluid from flowing into the well 426 and leaking out of an opening formed in the film by reason of the energized electrodes 404 .
- the controller opens a subsequent channel 402 by energizing its switching electrodes 422 to permit air to escape from the channel 402 and for the subsequent channel 402 to fill with body fluid. It should be appreciated that other methods for switching between channels and controlling fluid flow could be used and the invention is not limited by the above method
- the controller determine if the waste reservoir 406 is filled, is still filling at a constant rate, or if the needle 410 has dislodged from the cutaneous layer of the patient and the continuous sample stream has stopped.
- the waste reservoir 406 can be equipped with two electrodes (not shown) at the top and the bottom of the reservoir. Not in electrical contact with the sample fluid, these electrodes could measure the change in capacitance while the air inside the structure is slowly exchanged with sample fluid. The rate of the capacitance change will be directly proportional to the flow rate of the sample fluid and allow a close monitoring of the ongoing extraction.
- devices in accordance with the invention may measure the concentration of analytes other than those in bodily fluids.
