Patent number: 8460863Abstract: A method of preparing a dry stick test device for determining an analyte in a milk sample by chemical assay. At least one reagent pad is provided by impregnating a first porous material with an aqueous solution including a reagent capable of reacting with the analyte, a derivative of the analyte or an indicator compound for the analyte to provide a detectable signal when in a moistened state. The reagent pad is dried. A development pad is provided by impregnating a second porous material with an aqueous solution including at least one controlling compound which, when in a moistened state, is capable of providing a condition required for the reagent to react with the analyte to provide the detectable signal. The impregnated second porous material is dried. The first porous material is immobilized with the second porous material, on a solid support, to obtain the dry stick test device.Type: GrantFiled: June 11, 2012Date of Patent: June 11, 2013Assignee: Lattec I/SInventor: Lars Nygaard

Patent number: 6542833Abstract: A method for correcting the settings of a flow cytometer, designed for fast sample handling and counting, allowing about 500 samples per hour to be counted. The counting is based on the provision of data representing a PHA diagram (Pulse Height Analysis) of registered pulses, each indicating a passed cell or particle. To check the settings the user measures a standard sample of uniform microbeads 161 on the flow cytometer, and inserts information on a disk 162 in a computer arranged to process the measured data and to calculate: a plurality of particle counts on the same sample, a mean count, a standard deviation s and/or Coefficient of Variation CV, a signal mean value SM, a signal width (width of the bell-curve in the PHA-diagram). The parameters are compared to pre-set limits (165, 166, 167, 168) and the PHAS curve is compared to an ideal curve PHA0.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2000Date of Patent: April 1, 2003Assignee: Foss Electric A/SInventor: Lars Nygaard

Patent number: 5739034Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for quantitatively assessing the amount of any extraneous water contained in a milk sample, the method comprising the steps of (a) performing a determination of the infrared (IR) attenuation of the sample in at least one waveband, (b) quantitatively assessing the amount of any extraneous water in the sample on the basis of the determination (a) and predetermined regression coefficients derived from multivariate calibration with respect to the relationship between infrared attenuation in the at least one waveband and the amount of extraneous water. The invention furthermore relates to a similar method for determining the freezing point depression of the sample. In addition, the invention relates to a method for the establishment of a set of regression coefficients for use in an instrument which determines the amount of extraneous water or the freezing point depression of a milk sample.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 1996Date of Patent: April 14, 1998Assignee: Foss Electric A/SInventors: Borkur Arnvidarson, Lars Nygaard, Per Waaben Hansen

Patent number: 5343044Abstract: An infrared attenuation measuring system, for the quantitative determination of the concentration of one or more components in an aqueous fat-containing sample, such as milk, by an infrared attenuation technique. The system comprising a set of waveband-related parameters containing information enabling the system to calculate the concentrations substantially independent of the degree of homogenization of the fat-containing sample, and/or to determine the degree of homogenization of the sample. The parameter set contains parameters which are related to wavebands containing a high degree of information about the homogenization degree of the sample. This may be wavebands containing little information about the chemical components of the sample, and/or wavebands containing a substantial amount of information about the chemical components of the sample. The system is calibrated with aqueous fat-containing samples with different degrees of homogenization.Type: GrantFiled: June 11, 1993Date of Patent: August 30, 1994Assignee: A/S Foss ElectricInventors: Lars-Ove Sjaunja, Steen K. Andersen, Borkur Arnvidarson, Niels Brems, Torben Lapp, Lars Nygaard
