| 20080211849 | Inkjet Device and Method for the Controlled Positioning of Droplets of a Substance Onto a Substrate - The invention provides a device for the controlled positioning of droplets of a substance onto a substrate, the device comprising at least a print head comprising a nozzle provided to eject the droplet, the inkjet device further comprising a control camera arranged such that after ejection of the droplet out of the nozzle, the droplet is detected by the control camera. In case either the droplet volume or velocity or flight path or viscosity or surface tension start to deviate from preset values, the software can correct for this in a closed loop manner. If the droplet is not ejected at all, the control software stops the printer and an operator can maintain the print head. | 09-04-2008 |
| 20080252679 | Ink Jet Device for the Controlled Positioning of Droplets of a Substance Onto a Substrate, Method for the Controlled Positioning of Droplets of a Substrate, and Use of an Ink Jet Device - The invention provides an ink jet device for the controlled positioning of droplets of a substance onto a substrate, the device comprising at least a print head with a nozzle designed to eject the droplet, the device further comprising at least one acoustic sensor arranged for detecting the landing of the droplet on the substrate. A feedback loop stops the printing process the moment the landing of a droplet is not detected within a predetermined delay time. | 10-16-2008 |
| 20080305969 | Ink Jet Device and Method for Producing a Biological Assay Substrate by Releasing a Plurality of Substances Onto the Substrate - The invention provides an ink jet device ( | 12-11-2008 |
| 20090033690 | INK JET DEVICE AND METHOD FOR RELEASING A PLURALITY OF SUBSTANCES ONTO A SUBSTRATE - The invention provides an ink jet device for releasing a plurality of substances onto a substrate, the device comprising at least one print head, which is positionable relative to the substrate, and which comprises at least one nozzle, provided to eject a droplet. The ink jet device is designed such that the plurality of substances can be deposited onto the substrate in a predefined pattern in a limited amount of moves of the at least one print head relative to the substrate. | 02-05-2009 |
| 20090203544 | METHOD AND USE OF A PRINTER DEVICE FOR PRODUCING BIOLOGICAL TEST ARRAYS - The invention relates to a printer device for producing biological test arrays by depositing an array of biofluids onto a substrate. The invention further relates to the use of such a device in the production of biological test arrays. The invention also relates to a method for producing a biological test array. The invention moreover relates to a biological test array. The method according to the invention is failure-proof, and results in biological test arrays of superior quality. | 08-13-2009 |
| 20100029490 | INK-JET DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING A BIOLOGICAL ASSAY SUBSTRATE USING A PRINTING HEAD AND MEANS FOR ACCELERATED MOTION - The invention provides an ink jet device for producing a biological assay substrate. The device releases a plurality of substances onto the substrate from print heads, provided with the substances. The device further comprises means to subject the printed substrates to an accelerated motion. The accelerated motion which acts about perpendicular to the surface of the substrates acts to control penetration of the substances into the substrate. The invention also relates to a method for producing a biological assay substrate, and to a biological assay substrate obtainable by such method. | 02-04-2010 |
| 20100056381 | POROUS BIOLOGICAL ASSAY SUBSTRATE AND METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PRODUCING SUCH SUBSTRATE - The invention provides a porous biological assay substrate suitable for detecting at least one analyte in a biological sample fluid. The substrate comprises one or more capture probes able to each specifically bind one target analyte. The average concentration of the capture probes in pores with a size larger than the O | 03-04-2010 |
| 20100135855 | METHOD FOR DEPOSITING SUBSTANCES ON A SUPPORT - The present invention relates to a method for depositing a substance on a support, comprising the provision of a substance solution, the provision of a transfer solution capable of activating the support, the deposition of the transfer solution on a predefined position of the support and the deposition of the substance solution on the same predefined position where the transfer solution was placed, whereby an immobilization of the deposited substance at the location of overlap between the deposited transfer solution and the deposited substance solution on said support is achieved. | 06-03-2010 |
| 20100173803 | INK JET DEVICE FOR PRODUCING A BIOLOGICAL ASSAY SUBSTRATE BY RELEASING A PLURALITY OF SUBSTANCES ONTO THE SUBSTRATE, AND METHOD FOR MONITORING THE INK JET DEVICE - The invention provides an ink jet device and method for producing a biological assay substrate ( | 07-08-2010 |
| 20110017612 | METHOD OF PREPARING A SWALLOWABLE CAPSULE COMPRISING A SENSOR - The inventions relates to a kit comprising a swallowable capsule ( | 01-27-2011 |
