Abstract: Systems and methods detect a target analyte in a breath sample. The system includes a sensor device and an analyzer. The sensor device includes a breath capture mechanism for capturing the target analyte from the breath sample. The captured analyte is transferred to a testing solution. The sensor device includes a receptor for selectively binding the target analyte. The receptor and the bound analyte together form a receptor-analyte complex. The sensor device also includes a sensor. The sensor includes at least one electrode. A surface of the at least one electrode binds the receptor-analyte complex when the sensor is exposed to the testing solution containing the target analyte. The analyzer analyzes the sensor to determine a target analyte level. The analyzer includes an electronics subsystem for determining a change in an electrical property of the sensor caused by the presence of the receptor-analyte complex. The analyzer generates the target analyte level based on the change in the electrical property.

Abstract: The motor (1) of the present invention is fed by the mains voltage (Vac), and comprises a main winding (MW), an auxiliary winding (AW), a first triac (2) connected in series to the auxiliary winding (AW) which provides to start up the motor (1) by being actuated at the moment of start up in order to operate the motor (1), a second triac (3) connected in series to the main winding (MW) which provides the motor (1) to continue operating and a control unit (4) which controls the start up and operation of the motor (1) by actuating the triacs (2 and 3) when required.
