  • Optode for determining chemical parameters
    Patent number: 9518928
    Abstract: The invention is related to an optode for determining chemical parameters of a sample wherein the optode consists of a polymer matrix consisting of sulfonated polyether ether ketone (SPEEK) in which a sensor dye is immobilized or more than one sensor dye is immobilized, wherein at least one of the immobilized sensor dyes is pH-sensitive. In addition, the present invention also concerns a method for determining the pH of a sample in which the invention-related optode is used.

  • Process for producing three-dimensional tissue
    Patent number: 9222074
    Abstract: The invention provides a process for producing a three-dimensional tissue by cultivating eucaryotic cells by introducing the cells into a matrix and cultivating the cells within the matrix in a cell culture medium within a cell culture vessel under controlled dissolved oxygen conditions of the cell culture medium. The matrix contains a support containing an optical oxygen sensor, which is an oxygen-sensitive dye, which upon irradiation with an excitation wavelength changes its emission characteristics in dependence on the dissolved oxygen concentration in the surrounding medium, including a dye phosphorescing upon irradiation of an excitation wavelength, which phosphorescence is quenched by dissolved oxygen.
