Optode, consisting of an indicator enclosed in a membrane, for metering the conc. of particles with optical equipment and consisting of light source, light receiver anand display, has a reaction compartment contg. reagent(s) enclosed in a membrane before the (micro- or nano-) optode. The optode is useful for metering particles that cannot be recorded directly but only after reaction. Continuous metering is possible. Typical uses are for monitoring industrial alcohol mfr. or monitoring glucose mfr. in the biological process. |
