    摘要: The present invention relates to methods for detection and evaluation of metabolic activity of eukaryotic and/or prokaryotic cells based upon their ability to consume dissolved oxygen. The methods utilize a luminescence detection system which makes use of the sensitivity of the luminescent emission of certain compounds to the presence of oxygen, which quenches (diminishes) the compound's luminescent emission in a concentration dependent manner. Respiring eukaryotic and/or prokaryotic cells will affect the oxygen concentration of a liquid medium in which they are immersed. Thus, this invention provides a convenient system to gather information on the presence, identification, quantification and cytotoxic activity of eukaryotic and/or prokaryotic cells by determining their effect on the oxygen concentration of the media in which they are present.

    摘要: An apparatus for detecting, identifying and measuring infectious disease causing microorganisms is described. The apparatus utilizes a plural medium arrangement in which a test liquid containing a microorganism is simultaneously introduced. Different media are utilized for the plural medium arrangement and at least one of the media can contain a respiration inhibiting material and/or other reagents such as antibiotics. Dissolved oxygen measurements of the media are taken as a measurement of microorganism respiration. Oxygen electrode signals within different media are compared and differential respiration variation rates are determined and identification signals produced. The identification signal resulting from the multiple respiration rate determinations is compared with known values to identify and measure the microorganism. The drug sensitivity of a microorganism is also judged when at least one of the media contains a drug for which the sensitivity of microorganism is to be determined.

    摘要: This invention presents methods for detection and evaluation of metabolic activity of microorganisms based upon their ability to consume dissolved oxygen. The methods utilize a fluorescence detection system which makes use of the sensitivity of the fluorescent emission of certain compounds to the presence of oxygen, which quenches (diminishes) the compound's fluorescent emission in a concentration dependent manner. Respiring microorganisms will affect the oxygen concentration of a liquid medium in which they are immersed. Thus, this invention provides a convenient system to gather information on the presence, identification and metabolic activity of microorganisms by determining their effect on the oxygen concentration of the media in which they are present.

    摘要: A method for detecting oxygen in a test sample is provided, the method involving exposing a test sample and a control sample to sensor compositions having a luminescent compound capable of generating a signal indicative of oxygen depletion. The method further involves determining the strengths of such signals for the test sample versus the control sample, and using the difference to determine whether oxygen in the test sample is being consumed.
