  • Publication number: 20150192548
    Abstract: A sensor array comprises resonant sensors and porous receptor materials arranged on the resonant sensors to absorb or adsorb one or more analytes. The average pore size of the porous receptor materials on the sensors increases systematically from one sensor to the next in the array. At least one detector is arranged to detect responses of the resonant sensors when the array is exposed to a sample potentially containing one or more of the analytes. In some embodiments, a processor is programmed to determine from the sensor responses the presence, amount or relative concentration of target molecules in the sample.

  • Publication number: 20150177196
    Abstract: A sensor array includes at least first and second resonator sensors. A receptor material on the first sensor is hydrophilic relative to a receptor material on the second sensor, and the receptor material on the second sensor is hydrophobic relative to the receptor material on the first sensor. At least one detector measures sensor responses when masses of one or more of substances are adsorbed or bound to the sensors. A processor receives signals or data representative of the sensor responses. The processor is programmed to determine at least one humidity value according to the sensor responses.
