  • Flow chamber analyte detection method
    Patent number: 9535058
    Abstract: A flow chamber and method for detecting the presence of one more cell produced analytes under flow conditions. The flow chamber includes two compartments separated by a permeable membrane on which a plurality of cells may be positioned. The permeable membrane shields one or more analyte sensors positioned one compartment from the convective transport forces of a fluid flow within the other compartment to allow reliable and accurate detection of cell-produced analytes and determination of the concentration of cell-produced analytes.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 30, 2014
    Date of Patent: January 3, 2017
    Assignee: Drexel University
    Inventors: Dov Jaron, Kenneth A. Barbee, Allison M. Andrews
