Abstract: According to an embodiment, a microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) transducer includes a substrate with a first cavity that passes through the substrate from a backside of the substrate. The MEMS transducer also includes a perforated first electrode plate overlying the first cavity on a topside of the substrate, a second electrode plate overlying the first cavity on the topside of the substrate and spaced apart from the perforated first electrode plate by a spacing region, and a gas sensitive material in the spacing region between the perforated first electrode plate and the second electrode plate. The gas sensitive material has an electrical property that is dependent on a concentration of a target gas.

Abstract: A microfiltration device comprises a substrate having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The substrate includes a cavity between the first surface and the second surface. The substrate further includes a microfilter including a frame part in contact with the substrate and a filter part abutting the cavity. The microfilter comprises in both the frame part and the filter part a semiconducting or conducting material.

Abstract: A test strip comprises a test strip body comprising a fluid reservoir. The test strip further comprises a sensor unit configured to determine measurement data of a probe fluid in the fluid reservoir, and a communication unit electrically connected to the sensor unit, the communication unit including an antenna unit configured to transmit the measurement data. A system for determining measurement data of a probe fluid comprises the test strip and an external reader.
