  • Non-precipitating bodily fluid analysis system
    Patent number: 9182418
    Abstract: A bodily fluid analyzer including a dry test strip impregnated with a reagent providing a non-precipitating reaction to exclude non-desired analytes. The reagent complexes the non-desired analytes so they remain in solution but cannot participate in the test reaction. Red blood cells are removed from the detection area by slowing their vertical movement and stopping flow when the detection membrane is saturated.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 31, 2014
    Date of Patent: November 10, 2015
    Assignee: Polymer Technology Systems, Inc.
    Inventors: Gregory M. Lawrence, Meredith Knight
