20140102914 | ANALYTE SENSOR WITH SPENT GAS FLUSHED ENDCAPS - A sensor for detecting a target analyte in a gaseous sample at ultra-low concentrations wherein access opening(s) provided through the sensor housing are plugged with endcap(s) and spent gas (i.e., gaseous sample post detection) is channeled along the interface between the sensor housing and the endcap(s) prior to venting of the spent gas, for flushing any environmentally introduced target analyte from this interface. | 04-17-2014 |
20140017775 | ANALYTICAL INSTRUMENT FOR EVALUATING MICROBIAL CONTAMINATION OF AN OBJECT - An instrument for ascertaining a viable aerobic microbe count at t | 01-16-2014 |
20130086972 | CALIBRATION TECHNIQUE FOR CALIBRATING A ZIRCONIUM OXIDE OXYGEN SENSOR AND CALIBRATED SENSOR - A method of calibrating a zirconium oxide sensor employing a reference gas having a known mole fraction of oxygen and a monitored gas having a known mole fraction of oxygen, characterized by use of a reference gas and a monitored gas having the same mole fraction of oxygen but different partial pressures of oxygen. This allows a single gas source, such as air, to be used for both the reference gas and the monitored gas across a range of oxygen concentration readings. | 04-11-2013 |
20130005047 | LUMINESCENCE LIFETIME BASED ANALYTE SENSING INSTRUMENTS AND CALIBRATION TECHNIQUE - A method of calibrating a luminescence lifetime sensing instrument | 01-03-2013 |
20120318996 | GAS DISCHARGE LAMP WITH AN AXIALLY EXTENDING STRIP OF GETTER AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURE - A gas discharge lamp, photoionization sensor employing the gas discharge lamp, and method of manufacturing the lamp. The lamp includes a longitudinally extending strip of getter within the housing. | 12-20-2012 |
20110209520 | CALIBRATION CARD FOR OXYGEN OPTICAL SENSORS - A calibration card | 09-01-2011 |
20110146842 | INSTRUMENT FOR IMPERMANENT SEALED PERFORATION OF THIN-WALLED PACKAGING - An instrument for impermanent sealed perforation of thin-walled, hermetically sealed packaging. The instrument includes a longitudinally tapered needle and a septum with a hole. The underside of the septum is coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive. The hole through the septum is configured and arranged to permit unrestricted passage of the distal longitudinal end portion of the needle through the hole, while sealingly engaging the longitudinal midsection of the needle. The septum is incapable of sealing the hole through the septum after withdrawal of the needle from the hole. | 06-23-2011 |
20090173172 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR GENERATING A GAS SAMPLE OF KNOWN AND ADJUSTABLE RELATIVE HUMIDITY - A system and method for providing a destination point with a gas having a selectable known humidity. A gas having an initial relative humidity is alternately directed in accordance with a duty cycle along a wet path effective for humidifying the gas to provide a wet gas, and a dry path effective for either maintaining the initial relative humidity of the gas or dehumidifying the gas to provide a dry gas. The wet and dry gas is blended to produce a blended gas having a selected relative humidity based upon the selected duty cycle. | 07-09-2009 |
