Details of Patent
This patent is for a calibration device for eab biofluid sensors. The invention is further described a device for calibrating electrochemical aptamer-based biofluid sensors. In some embodiments a calibrant is located proximate to the EAB sensors, and calibration is facilitated by introduction of the biofluid into the device. Other embodiments include various mechanisms for introducing calibration solution to the sensors, including drawing calibration solution into contact with sensors through electrical potential, a dispensing mechanism such as an ink jet-type nozzle, as well as pressure actuated calibration dispensing. Also included are embodiments employing bifurcated biofluid transport paths that allow alternately for calibration and biofluid sensing.
