Appeal No. 98-2792
Application 08/516,257
APPENDIX
1. A system for measuring properties of an analyte
comprising
a sensor capsule having a single undivided
processing chamber defined by a wall which has a semi-
permeable membrane permeable to said analyte as at least a
portion thereof,
receptor material disposed within said chamber and
being capable of chemically interacting with said analyte, and
at least a portion of said sensor wall being trans-
lucent, whereby light entering said processing chamber will
not be blocked from impinging on the analyte or receptor
material by a chamber dividing wall restricting passage of
said light.
15. A sensor unit for sensing properties of a
sample analyte and structured to be used with remote light
source means and remote detection means both of which are
disposed in non- contacting position with respect to said
sensor unit, said sensor unit comprising
a capsule defining a single undivided processing
chamber, at least a portion of said capsule being a semi-
permeable membrane, which is permeable to said analyte, and
receptor material disposed within said chamber and
capable of chemically interacting with said analyte, whereby
light entering said chamber will not be blocked from impinging
on the analyte or receptor material by a chamber dividing wall
restricting passage of said light.
