L-Shaped sensor for tissue bath studies

The ISO-NOPF100-LXX is a unique L-shaped nitric oxide sensor designed specifically for use in tissue bath studies and similar applications (see WPI's MYOBATH ). The shape of the sensor has been engineered to facilitate placement of the electrode within the lumen of the tissue vessel under study. The ISO-NOPF100-LXX has a flexible tip (100 µm diameter).

 

Design

These sensors are based on a composite graphite NO-sensing element combined with a reference electrode. The surface of the sensor is then coated with a unique multi-layered NO-selective membrane.

Selectivity of WPI's NO sensors

The ideal NO sensor should be insensitive to other reactive species likely to be present within the measurement environment. Conventional Nafion coated carbon fiber NO sensor exhibits a large response to such species. WPI's unique NO sensor technology utilizes an novel surface membrane which amplifies the response to NO whilst eliminating responses to a vast range of reactive species, including nitrite, absorbic acid, hydrogen peroxide, catecolamines, and much more.
