Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The present invention can be described as an apparatus and cartridge for detecting the presence of an analyte in a fluid. The invention can also be described as a method of detecting the presence of an analyte in a fluid using the apparatus and cartridge. The method comprises the steps of clamping a sensor cartridge into a cartridge receiver of the apparatus, providing fluid to a fluid flow-path of the cartridge, illuminating at least a portion of a sensor, and using a photodetector to detect a change in the optical property of the sensor, wherein the change is caused by the presence or absence of an analyte in the fluid.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
We claim: 1. An apparatus for detecting the presence of an analyte in a fluid in a cartridge, the apparatus comprising: a tube; a first coupling configured to mate with an inlet port of the cartridge; a condensate trap in fluid communication between the tube and the first coupling; a head assembly having a photodetector interface, the photodetector interface configured to cooperate with a sensor port of the cartridge to expose at least a portion of the photodetector interfac…
