SIRE Sensor Cell Set (Sensor with Injectable Recognition Element)

The SIRE Sensor Cell Set consists of a sensor with an integrated non-removable specialised chamber.

The set also contains a syringe which will allow the injection of the recognition element (Enzyme).
The SIRE Sensor Cell uses the concept of soluble enzymes into a reaction chamber separated from the sample by a semi permeable dialysis membrane. The analyte (for example maltose), enters into the reaction chamber by diffusion. The analyte reacts with the recognition enzymes creating H₂O₂ which is oxidized on a screen printed Pt electrode. The current corresponds to the amount of analyte.
