Abstract: An electrochemical measurement cartridge includes a container including a first analysis chamber for receiving a fluid to be analyzed and a second calibration chamber for receiving a calibration fluid; an electrochemical measurement sensor including at least one work electrode and one reference electrode; a container supporting the sensor and a cover arranged mobile relative to one another to confer on the cartridge at least two separate operating configurations, a first configuration in which the sensor is communicating with the first analysis chamber and a second configuration in which the sensor is communicating with the second calibration chamber; sealing between the chambers of the container and the cover; and a drive member for providing a relative movement of the container relative to the cover.

Abstract: A method for producing a polymer membrane for the potentiometric detection of an analyte, the method comprising the following successive steps: providing a formulation comprising a dissolved polymer, an ion exchanger, an ionophore, optionally a plasticiser, and a solvent selected from glycol ethers and acetates thereof, and glycol diacetates, depositing the formulation on a support, for example a transducer, and evaporating the solvent, so as to form a polymer membrane.

Abstract: A medical drain sensor is provided located in a region of a drain tube which has turbulent or re-circulatory exudate flow. Means are provided in some embodiments to promote or enhance such flow.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for functionalising at least a portion of a wall of a pore of a carrier material, characterised in that it comprises: a) contacting the pore with a solution of electrically activated entities and positioning two electrodes in said solution in order to create inside the pore, and when an electric signal is applied between the two electrodes, a voltage drop capable of generating a localised deposit on said wall; and b) applying an electric signal between the two electrodes in order to activate the electrically activated entities and carry out said functionalisation function.
