Disposable Sensors

Conductive TechnologiesTechnologies' is one of the largest, if not the largest and most advanced, manufacturers of circuit based bio and chemical sensors. Conductive TechnologiesTechnologies' working definition of a bio-sensor is an analytical device incorporating a biological sensing element coupled to a suitable transducer that converts biochemical activity into a measurable form of energy. Biological recognition elements used in bio-sensors are often grouped as enzymes, anti-bodies or bacterias. Transducers typically fall into three main classes - electrochemical, optical and acoustic.

The platforms that we produce are Conductive Technologiesin nature. The normal operation of these sensors will indicate a change in state of either impedance, resistance, current flow or a thermal reaction. The sensor begins with an electrical circuit or a thermistor for temperature sensing. A catalyst or reagent is placed on this electrical circuit that has been custom tuned to detect certain chemicals, molecules, temperatures or toxins. When the reagent detects the presence of the biological by-product or chemical reaction that is desired, it will cause a change in conductivity, generate an electrical signal or cause a thermal reaction to take place. By attaching an instrument of your design, those changes in state can be detected. By the amount of the change in state, the concentration or amount of the desired detected material can be determined.

Conductive TechnologiesTechnologies has the capabilities of not only printing and curing Conductive Technologiesand non-Conductive Technologiesmaterials, but can also apply, through printing processes, reagents and catalysts with very precise laydowns, usually less than three percent CV.

Conductive TechnologiesTechnologies develops the manufacturing processes to produce the electrically based platform and can provide very specialized Conductive Technologiesmaterials to fit the requirements that are imposed by the operation of the sensor. With Conductive TechnologiesTechnologies, you will have one of the leading companies in the bio-sensor business helping you develop your products.
