Publication number: 20180372759Abstract: Disclosed is a method for determining onset of a sleep-related analyte. The method includes: obtaining first surrogate measurement(s) of a sleep-related analyte based on signal(s) obtained via sensor(s) during a first time period of observation; obtaining second surrogate measurement(s) of the sleep-related analyte based on signal(s) obtained via sensor(s) during a second time period of observation; determining a first surrogate function or value based on the first surrogate measurement(s) and a second surrogate function or value based on the second surrogate measurement(s); and predicting an onset of the sleep-related analyte for a first individual based on the first surrogate function or value and the second surrogate function or value such that the prediction of the onset of the sleep-related analyte is performed without determining an absolute concentration value for the sleep-related analyte.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2018Publication date: December 27, 2018Inventors: ALEXANDER VAN REENEN, MARKUS HENDRIKUS VAN ROOSMALEN, LAURENT BROUQUEYRE, PETRUS JOHANNES WILHELMUS VAN LANKVELT

Patent number: 10133978Abstract: A device such as a disposable cartridge has an RFID tag (30) having an antenna (10), and a fluidic element (20, 160), the antenna having a shape to at least partly enclose an area, at least a part of the fluidic element being located in this area. By having such a structure, the device can be made more compact or the antenna can be made larger, and hence the costs for a given performance can be reduced, or the storage space for a given number of devices can be reduced.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2011Date of Patent: November 20, 2018Assignee: Minicare B.V.Inventors: Bernardus Jozef Maria Beerling, Petrus Johannes Wilhelmus Van Lankvelt, Wendela Meertens, Jeroen Hans Nieuwenhuis

Patent number: 10006907Abstract: A cartridge for detection of target components in a liquid sample includes a sample chamber, at least two reservoirs that can be furnished with magnetic particles, and at least two corresponding sensitive zones in which solved magnetic particles and/or target components can be detected. When a magnetic actuation field of a given configuration is established in the sample chamber, the magnetic particles of different reservoirs migrate predominantly to different sensitive zones. Thus a mixing of magnetic particles can be avoided.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2016Date of Patent: June 26, 2018Assignee: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V.Inventors: Mara Johanna Jacoba Sijbers, Petrus Johannes Wilhelmus Van Lankvelt, Femke Karina De Theije, Jeroen Hans Nieuwenhuis

Patent number: 9696246Abstract: A sensor system (100) includes a reader (150) with a sensor unit (155, 156) and an accommodation Space (151) for an exchangeable cartridge (110). The cartridge (110) is held in the accommodation space (151) by at least one contact element (111) which has an increased thermal resistance and/or a contact area of reduced size. Thus a more homogenous temperature distribution can be achieved within the cartridge (110), reducing distortions which might adversely affect optical measurements.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2012Date of Patent: July 4, 2017Assignee: KONINKLIJKE PHLIPS N.V.Inventors: Bernardus Jozef Maria Beerling, Jeroen Hans Nieuwenhuis, Petrus Johannes Wilhelmus Van Lankvelt, Wendela Meertens, Patrick Zuidema

Patent number: 8486718Abstract: A magnetic system for biosensors is switchable between attraction force and repulsion force near the sensor surface. The magnetic system includes a magnetic source and a sensor. The sensor corresponds with the magnetic field in a way that the magnetic source creates inhomogeneous magnetic field lines that results in a magnetic force towards the magnetic system and which subsequently or adjacently exerts a magnetic force directed away from the magnetic system with all magnetic forces generated at the same magnetic source.Type: GrantFiled: May 8, 2007Date of Patent: July 16, 2013Assignee: Koninklijke Philips N.V.Inventors: Petrus Johannes Wilhelmus Van Lankvelt, Menno Willem Jose Prins
