20090264308 | BIOSENSOR SOLID SUBSTRATE WITH INTEGRATED TEMPERATURE CONTROL AND A METHOD TO MAKE THE SAME - This invention provides a biosensor solid or hydrogel substrate comprising one or more temperature indicating agents, each of said one or more temperature indicating agents operating by changing its optical properties and being deposited in and/or at the surface of the biosensor solid or hydrogel substrate as one or more layers and/or spots | 10-22-2009 |
20090268203 | SPECTROSCOPIC METHOD OF DETERMINING THE AMOUNT OF AN ANALYTE IN A MIXTURE OF ANALYTES - The invention relates to a multivariate calibration which can be used when the optical system used for that method does not comprise a multi-channel detector such as a CCD sensor or a line array of photodiodes. An optical system without a multi-channel detector doesn't allow to carry out preprocessing steps. Thus there is the need to carry out these preprocessing steps in another way. It is suggested to partially replace the preprocessing step by a measurement of the optical signal, whereby the measurement comprises transmitting or reflecting the optical signal by an optical element, thereby weighing the optical signal by a spectral weighing function. The advantage of the invention is to teach how such an optical system without a bulky and expensive CCD sensor can be used to carry out a multivariate calibration and preprocessing steps. | 10-29-2009 |
20100238311 | IMAGING DEVICE - An imaging device for forming an image of a sample object includes an optical device and a processing unit. The optical device captures a Fourier spectrum of an object. The processing unit is arranged for processing the Fourier spectrum from the optical device and is adapted for determining the image of the sample object from the intensity of the Fourier spectrum of the sample object and the intensity of the Fourier spectrum of a combination of the sample object and a reference object. | 09-23-2010 |
