| 20110270061 | ELECTROCHEMICAL SENSOR MODULE - Certain embodiments of a sensor cartridge element include a sensor module, an electrode arrangement installed on the sensor module, and a delivery arrangement securely coupled to the sensor module. The sensor module includes an analysis cell and a skin piercing member. The electrode arrangement generates an electrical signal when exposed to a fluid sample collected in the analysis cell. The delivery arrangement includes a drug reservoir, a piston chamber, and a valve arrangement providing selective fluid communication between the drug reservoir and the piston chamber. Metering electronics and an actuator can manage collection of fluid samples and/or dispensing of drug doses. | 11-03-2011 |
| 20110266149 | ELECTROCHEMICAL SENSOR MODULE - A sensor module includes a flexible linkage; an analysis cell housing; a member anchor; a piercing member; and an electrode arrangement. The analysis cell housing defines an analysis cell and a passageway providing access to the analysis cell from a sample port of the analysis cell housing. The member anchor is configured to move relative to the analysis cell housing along the axis defined by the passageway. The piercing member is configured to slide from a retracted position to an extended position when the member anchor is moved relative to the analysis cell housing. The electrode arrangement is arranged in fluid communication with the analysis cell housing. | 11-03-2011 |
| 20110265944 | MANUFACTURING ELECTROCHEMICAL SENSOR MODULE - Certain processes for manufacturing an electrochemical sensor module include molding first and second opposing portions of a sensor module housing onto a carrier; installing an electrode arrangement on the first portion of the sensor module housing; folding the carrier to align the first portion of the sensor module housing with the second portion; and joining the first and second portions of the sensor module housing. The carrier can be advanced amongst different stations that perform the various process steps. | 11-03-2011 |
| 20110203941 | ELECTROCHEMICAL SENSOR AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING - A sensor includes a sheath that is elongated along a longitudinal axis; a spacer positioned within the sheath and defining first and second channels having lengths that extend along the longitudinal axis; a first elongated member positioned within the first channel; and a second elongated member positioned within the second channel. The first elongated member includes an active surface forming a working electrode and the second elongated member including an active surface defining a counter electrode. | 08-25-2011 |
| 20110189762 | ELECTROCHEMICAL SENSOR AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING - The present disclosure relates to a sensor including an elongated member including at least a portion that is electrically conductive. The elongated member includes a sensing layer adapted to react with a material desired to be sensed. An insulating layer surrounds the elongated member. The insulating layer defines at least one access opening for allowing the material desired to be sensed to enter an interior region defined between the elongated member and the insulating layer. The insulating layer has an inner transverse cross-sectional profile that is different from an outer transverse cross-sectional profile of the elongated member. The difference in transverse cross-sectional profiles between the elongated member and the insulating layer provides channels at the interior region defined between the insulating layer and the elongated member. The channels extend generally along the length of the elongated member and are sized to allow the material desired to be sensed to move along the length of the sensor. | 08-04-2011 |
| 20100252430 | SENSOR FOR MEASURING A BIOANALYTE SUCH AS LACTATE - The present disclosure relates to a sensor including a plurality of electrically conductive fibers. The sensor also includes a sensing material coating at least some of the fibers, and an insulating layer that surrounds the electrically conductive fibers. | 10-07-2010 |
