Embodiment Construction

[0018] [0006] In general, the present invention includes assay or other analytical devices, eg, for analyzing bodily fluids such as blood or urine, having a plurality of battery cells activated by the sample being analyzed. The battery packs are connected in series so that the sum of the voltages provides a higher voltage.

[0019] [0007] Referring to FIG. 1, there can be seen a generally constructed apparatus 100 schematically shown in greater detail. Samples are provided from the sample supply channel 102 to each of the power channel 104 and the sample analysis channel 106 . The power channel 104 includes a plurality of energy cells, such as galvanic or battery cells 108, each of which includes a pair of electrodes activated by the sample to generate an electrical current. The batteries are connected in series via connector 110 and provide current via connector 112 . The sample analysis channel 106 includes a sample analysis electrode 114, which may be any suitable detecto...

Abstract

An analysis device is provided for analysing a substance sample. The device comprises a plurality of sample activatable battery cells connected in series.

Description

technical field [0001] [0001] The present invention relates to analytical devices, in particular analytical devices for analyzing samples of substances. Background technique [0002] [0002] Sample disposable assays for the detection of analytes are known, for example, the ClearBludDigital® sold by Unipath Ltd for the detection of pregnancy endocrine human chorionic gonadotropin TM device. The provision of electronic assay devices offers various advantages over conventional visual reading devices in that test results can be displayed without user intervention, the results can be semi-quantitative or fully quantitative, and the results can be stored in memory . However, such a setup may include many photodiodes and photodetectors as well as signal processing electronics and an LED display, all of which have some electrical power requirements. These devices are typically powered by commercially available coin cell batteries disposed within the device. Environmental regulati...
